Targeted Infusion Project Grant: Development and Enhancement of the Physics Laboratories at Winston-Salem State University

有针对性的注入项目题为-发展和加强物理实验室在温斯顿-塞勒姆州立大学-旨在发展和加强入门物理，生物物理，可再生能源，光学，现代物理和计算物理实验室，这最终将影响约300名学生主修或辅修科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）计划，特别是那些参加物理辅修课程的学生。该项目整合了教育和研究，因为仪器和计算实验室也将用于进行非线性光学，计算物理和太阳能的跨学科研究。研究工作以一种有意义的方式涉及本科生。该项目将加强温斯顿塞勒姆州立大学的物理教育和研究基础设施，并为本科生的研究生学习或STEM劳动力做好准备。 拟议的活动集中在一个部门，目前招收六名物理未成年人，他们都是非洲裔美国人。该计划是，物理未成年人将导致在五年内的物理专业计划。这在历史上黑人学院和大学正在失去物理课程的时候意义重大。项目活动的结果将通过在专业物理教育工作者会议上的演讲传播给更广泛的物理界。

The Targeted Infusion Project entitled - Development and Enhancement of the Physics Laboratories at Winston-Salem State University - seeks to develop and enhance the Introductory Physics, Biophysics, Renewable Energy, Optics, Modern Physics, and Computational Physics laboratories, which ultimately will impact about 300 students majoring or minoring in science,technology,engineering and mathematics (STEM) programs, and in particular those enrolled in the Physics minor program. The project integrates education and research because the instrumentations and computational labs will be also used to conduct interdisciplinary research in nonlinear optics, computational physics, and solar energy. The research efforts involve undergraduate students in a meaningful way. The project will enhance the infrastructure for physics education and research at Winston Salem State University and prepare undergraduate students for graduate studies or the STEM workforce. The proposed activities are centered in a department that currently enrolls six physics minors, all of them African American. The plan is that the physics minor will lead to a Physics major program within five years. This is significant at a time when Historically Black Colleges and Universities are losing their physics programs. The results of the project activities will be disseminated to the broader Physics community through presentations at meetings of professional Physics educators.
