The NSF-REU Site in Physics at San Jose State University, a modern comprehensive California State University campus, has operated on a year-round basis since 1989, has high minority and female participation, and draws from a large pool of well-qualified undergraduate Physics majors. Most of the ongoing research projects are in the areas of optics, condensed matter, and computational physics - areas that represent the major scientific focus in high-tech Silicon Valley surrounding our campus. These on-going projects provide both experimental and theoretical research experiences for undergraduates in Physics. Our summer program serves under-represented students from universities other than San Jose State, and part of our program provides support for students in industry-university partnerships. These partnerships consist of a Physics faculty member, a physicist from an industry or government laboratory, and an NSF-REU student participant. This part of our program fosters important collaborations and facilitates technology transfer to the commercial sector. Research results are reported with, in some cases, student participants as co-authors. In addition, formal presentations by students are made at weekly REU meetings of students, faculty, and industrial scientists.

圣何塞州立大学的 NSF-REU 物理中心是一所现代化的综合性加州州立大学校园，自 1989 年以来全年运营，少数族裔和女性参与度较高，并吸引了大量高素质本科生物理专业。 大多数正在进行的研究项目都在光学、凝聚态和计算物理领域，这些领域代表了我们校园周围高科技硅谷的主要科学焦点。 这些正在进行的项目为物理学本科生提供实验和理论研究经验。 我们的暑期项目为来自圣何塞州立大学以外的大学的代表性不足的学生提供服务，并且我们项目的一部分为产学合作伙伴关系的学生提供支持。 这些合作伙伴由一名物理学教员、一名来自行业或政府实验室的物理学家以及一名 NSF-REU 学生参与者组成。 我们计划的这一部分促进重要的合作并促进向商业部门的技术转让。 在某些情况下，研究结果的报告由学生参与者作为共同作者。 此外，学生在每周 REU 的学生、教师和工业科学家会议上进行正式演讲。
