REU Site: University of Michigan - CERN Research Experience for Undergraduates and High School Teacher Programs

密歇根大学安娜堡分校的本科生研究体验(REU)网站每年夏天为15名本科生提供参与瑞士日内瓦欧洲核子研究组织(CERN)高能物理课题研究的机会。除了与经验丰富的导师一起参与研究外，REU的学生还将参加研讨会和讲座等活动，以学习了解国际科学合作的性质以及现代物理研究的问题和方法。到节目结束时，每个学生都将完成正式的演讲，并将录制成视频并发布在CERN的网站上。该项目包括一个教师研究体验(RET)网站，每年夏天来自美国各地的五名高中教师都会接触到CERN的研究。教师将利用他们的经验来激励他们的学生更好地理解物理世界，并为他们成为下一代科学家做好准备。教师还与其他国家的教师分享教学方法。在欧洲核子研究中心的研究和学习将为学生和教师提供无与伦比的机会来学习和研究高能物理中一些最具智力挑战的主题。在CERN从事前沿问题研究的学生经历了智力上的学徒生涯，并学习理解国际科学合作的性质以及现代物理研究的问题和方法。欧洲核子研究中心的学生项目将包括涉及大型强子对撞机的实验，其他低能和中微子实验，以及欧洲核子研究中心的计算研究。该奖项由国际科学与工程办公室共同资助。

This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor provides fifteen undergraduate students each summer the opportunity to participate in research on topics in high energy physics at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland. In addition to participating in research with an experienced mentor, the REU students will engage in activities such as seminars and lectures to learn to understand the nature of international scientific collaborations and the questions and methods of modern physics research. By the end of the program, every student will have given a formal presentation, which will be recorded on video and posted on the CERN website. This project includes a Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) site, where each summer five high school teachers from across the U.S. are exposed to research at CERN. The teachers will use their experience to motivate their students to better understand the physical world and prepare them to become the future generation of scientists. Teachers also share teaching methods with teachers from other countries. Research and study at CERN will provide unparalleled opportunities for students and teachers to learn about and work on some of the most intellectually challenging topics in high energy physics. Students working on cutting edge problems at CERN experience an intellectual apprenticeship and learn to understand the nature of international scientific collaborations and the questions and methods of modern physics research. Student projects at CERN will include experiments involving the Large Hadron Collider, other low energy and neutrino experiments, and CERN computing research. This award is co-funded by the Office of International Science and Engineering.
