REU Site: SMaRT: Summer Materials Research Training.

该奖项支持奥克兰大学本科生研究经验（REU）网站。 奥克兰大学（Oakland University）物理系网站的目标是让大学和社区学院的年轻学生以及高中生接触到严谨科学研究的兴奋。 项目涉及物理学、材料学、医学物理学和生物化学。 为期十周，学生将参加一个密集的研究计划，包括一对一的指导，专门的研讨会，辅导，实地考察和社交活动，最终以会议式的最终演讲结束。 组装的多学科团队将提供各种以研究为中心的活动（教程，道德课程，研究密集的实地考察）在一个小的大学校园提供轻松的气氛。 该奖项由物理学部资助，并由材料研究部共同资助。

This award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Oakland University. The goal of the site in the Physics Department at Oakland University (OU) is to expose young students from universities and community colleges, as well as senior high-school students, to the excitement of rigorous scientific research. Projects are available in physics, materials, medical physics, and biochemistry. For ten weeks, students will participate in an intensive research program composed of one-on-one mentoring, dedicated seminars, tutorials, field trips, and social activities, culminating in a conference-style final presentation. The multidisciplinary team assembled will provide a variety of research-centered activities (tutorials, an ethics course, research intensive field trips) in a relaxed atmosphere provided by a small University campus. This award is funded by the Division of Physics with co-funding support from the Division of Materials Research.
