REU Site: Summer Undergraduate Research Experience in Physics at the University of Michigan

该奖项支持密歇根大学本科生物理研究经验（REU）网站的更新。每年，REU项目将为来自美国各地的10名学生提供参加为期10周的暑期研究项目的机会。REU学生与教师导师密切合作，进行为期十周的研究项目。此外，他们还通过一系列研究研讨会接触到各种研究主题和方法。为了帮助他们的专业发展，学生们还参加有关伦理、申请研究生院、科学写作和科学报告的教程。在项目结束时，学生们将参加为期两天的REU研讨会，在那里他们将向同行和教师导师展示他们的研究成果。他们还准备书面项目报告，这些报告可能导致同行评审的出版物。研究工作通过一系列广泛的教育和社会活动得到加强，包括安全培训、机械车间和电子车间课程、实验室参观、教师举办的研究研讨会以及与其他学生和教师的各种午餐。这些活动使学生能够把他们的研究经验放在一个更广阔的角度，建立一个专业联系网络，并在科学的环境中发展专业技能。

This award supports the renewal of the physics Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of Michigan. Each year, the REU program will provide ten students from around the United States an opportunity to participate in a ten-week summer research program. REU students work closely with a faculty mentor on a ten-week research project. In addition, they are exposed to a variety of research topics and methodologies through a series of research seminars. To assist in their professional development, students also participate in tutorials on ethics, applying to graduate school, scientific writing and giving scientific presentations. At the end of the program, the students participate in a two-day REU symposium where they present their research results to their peers and faculty mentors. They also prepare written project reports that can lead to peer reviewed publications. Research work is augmented by an extensive array of educational and social activities, including safety training, machine shop and electronic shop classes, lab tours, research seminars given by faculty, and a variety of lunches with other students and faculty. These activities allow students to put their research experience in a wider perspective, to build a network of professional contacts, and to develop professional skills in a scientific environment.
