REU Site: Chemistry Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships (Chem-SURF)

该奖项来自化学系(CHE)，用于资助加州大学欧文分校(UC Irvine)2008-2010年夏季的本科生研究体验(REU)网站。这个REU网站将由Fillmore Freeman管理，并得到加州大学欧文分校化学系的Gregory Weiss的帮助。这个REU网站将在每年夏天将8名学生带到校园进行为期10周的化学前沿研究。UCI的化学暑期本科生研究奖学金(Chem-SURF)计划的主要重点是向学生介绍在化学科学中由教师指导和合作的研究。在化学生物学、化学物理、分析、大气、生物无机、生物有机、计算(理论)、无机、材料、有机、物理、聚合物和表面化学领域的22名教师导师将提供给REU学生。除了他们的核心研究项目外，学生们还将参加几个旨在发展他们的研究、沟通和专业互动技能的研讨会，并将安排几次实地考察和参观当地公司和组织。

This award from the Division of Chemistry (CHE) supports a new Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of California Irvine (UC Irvine) for the summers of 2008-2010. This REU site will be managed by Fillmore Freeman with assistance from Gregory Weiss, both from the Department of Chemistry at UC Irvine. This REU site will bring eight students to campus for a ten-week period each summer to conduct cutting edge research in chemistry. The main focus UCI's Chemistry Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (Chem-SURF) program is to introduce students to faculty-mentored and collaborative research in the chemical sciences. Twenty-two faculty mentors with research projects in the areas of chemical biology, chemical physics, analytical, atmospheric, bioinorganic, bioorganic, computational (theoretical), inorganic, materials, organic, physical, polymer, and surface chemistry will be available to the REU students. In addition to their core research projects, students will be attending several seminar sessions designed to develop their research, communication, and professional interaction skills and several field trips and tours will be arranged to local companies and organizations.
