REU Site: Research Experience for Undergraduates in Astrophysics, Nuclear and Particle Physics

该奖项支持在韦恩州立大学举办的本科生研究经验（REU）计划的更新。 该计划包括一个准备阶段，包括在冬季为学生提供一个小时的课程，然后在韦恩州立大学或费米国家实验室（巴达维亚，IL）进行为期十周的夏季研究，主题包括天体物理学，核物理学或粒子物理学。一小时的课程向学生介绍了与夏季体验相关的物理，数学和计算概念。它包括计算机培训作业和道德操守部分。然后，参与者与每个地点的其他现有REU计划合并，进行各种科学主题的社会活动和讲座。学生由博士研究人员指导，研究前沿物理主题和/或技术，以获得良好的指导质量以及他们在各自科学领域的领导力。学生必须在他们的经验结束时提交一份报告，并提供口头报告的形式。

This award supports the renewal of the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program hosted at Wayne State University. The program consists of a preparation phase involving a one-hour course given over the winter to student participants, followed by ten weeks of summer research at either Wayne State University or Fermi National Laboratory (Batavia, IL) in topics including Astrophysics, Nuclear Physics, or Particle Physics. The one-hour course introduces the students to the physical, mathematical and computational concepts relevant for the summer experience. It includes a computer training homework and an ethics component. The participants then merge with other existing REU programs at each site for social activities and lectures on various scientific topics. Students are mentored by PhD researchers working on leading edge physics topics and/or technologies chosen for good mentorship qualities as well as their leadership in their respective scientific fields. Students are required to submit a report in the form of a paper at the end of their experience and deliver oral presentations.
