REU Site: Chemistry Research Experiences for Undergraduates at Harvey Mudd College

该奖项由化学学部颁发，支持哈维马德学院本科生研究经验（REU）网站的更新。亚当·约翰逊（Adam Johnson）是该网站的项目主管。8名REU学生将获得为期10周的研究项目的支持，其他学生将获得机构资金和教师研究补助金的支持。主要侧重于与HMC教师导师密切合作的一系列化学学科的个人研究。研究活动将辅以伦理、化学安全和信息检索方面的讲习班，学生将在项目期间至少两次公开论坛上展示他们的工作。许多学生还将在美国化学会春季会议上展示他们的研究成果。该网站将继续招募女性，并鼓励来自当地机构（位于洛杉矶、奥兰治和河滨县的两年制和四年制机构）的代表性不足的学生参与，这些机构的夏季研究机会有限。HMC研究经验的评估和评估将由HMC评估办公室和学院院长管理。匿名项目评估表将提供学生研究经验的反馈。HMC还参与了一项关于研究对理科本科生影响的长期研究，该研究是与霍普学院、格林内尔学院和韦尔斯利学院合作开展的。

This award from the Division of Chemistry supports the renewal of a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Harvey Mudd College (HMC). Adam Johnson is the site's Program Director. Eight REU students will be supported for a ten-week research program with additional students being supported by institutional funds and faculty research grants. The major focus is on individual research in a range of chemical disciplines in close collaboration with HMC faculty mentors. Research activities will be supplemented by workshops in ethics, chemical safety, and information retrieval, and students will present their work in at least two public forums during the program. Many students also will present their research results at the spring meeting of the American Chemical Society. This site will continue to recruit women and also will encourage participation of underrepresented students from local institutions (two- and four-year institutions located in Los Angeles, Orange and Riverside counties) with limited summer research opportunities. The evaluation and assessment of the research experience at HMC will be administered by the HMC Offices of Assessment and of the Dean of Faculty. An anonymous program evaluation form will provide feedback on students' research experiences. HMC also participates in a long-term study on the impact of research on science undergraduates, carried out in collaboration with Hope, Grinnell and Wellesley Colleges.
