The broad goal of this award is to enhance the materials science research and education program at California State University, Los Angeles (CSULA) by expanding the existing collaboration between the Center for the Science and Engineering of Materials (CSEM) at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). It focuses on developing highly trained undergraduate and master's students for careers in research via a comprehensive program involving scientific research, workshops and seminars, and faculty mentoring and advising. The program will be called the CSULA-Caltech Partnerships for Research and Education in Materials (PREM) Collaborative. The materials research emphasis will focus on the development and application of new materials. Specifically, they will focus on three research subprojects: 1. Solvent-Resistant Microfluidics.2. The Study of Drug Release Using the Self-Assembly of Fluoroalkyl-Ended Poly(ethylene glycol) by NMR Methods of Relaxation, Self-Diffusion and Microimaging.3. Ir and Pt Complexes Tethered to Nanoparticles as Singlet Oxygen Sensitizers and Quenchers.In terms of intellectual merit, this collaboration brings together well-qualified researchers with diverse interests in an interdisciplinary setting to examine materials science problems in a creative and novel approach. The facilities at CSULA and Caltech are sufficient to conduct the proposed work. In order to integrate more faculty from CSULA into the PREM program, a yearly SEED grant program is proposed. This program will be a competitive internal grants program and will provide funding for creative small research projects, student stipends and travel, and supplies. Faculty awarded funding will be eligible for continued funding throughout the duration of the PREM program. The educational program will consist of a student research program, research training workshops and scientific seminars, and academic advising and mentoring. Students will be designated as PREM fellows and will participate in the three research subprojects. Fellows will participate in yearlong workshops on topics such as careers in materials science and chemistry, conducting scientific research, and ethics in research. Students will be continually evaluated as to their academic progress and course advisement will occur prior to each quarter of instruction. A summer research experience for academically talented high schools students is also proposed in collaboration with three local minority high schools (Roosevelt, Garfield, and Wilson) with over 95% Latino enrollment.

该奖项的广泛目标是通过扩大加利福尼亚理工学院（CALTECH）的材料与工程中心（CSEM）之间现有的合作，以扩大洛杉矶加利福尼亚州立大学（CSULA）的材料科学研究和教育计划。 它着重于通过涉及科学研究，研讨会和研讨会以及教师指导和建议的全面计划，开发训练有素的本科生和硕士学生从事研究职业。该计划将称为材料研究和教育（PERM）协作的Csula-Caltech合作伙伴关系。材料研究的重点将重点放在新材料的开发和应用上。 具体而言，他们将重点关注三个研究子项目：1。抗溶剂的微流体。2。使用NMR松弛，自扩散和微型成像的NMR方法，使用氟烷基触发聚乙二醇（乙二醇）的自组装进行药物释放的研究3。 IR和PT综合体将纳米颗粒作为单线氧气敏化剂和淬灭者束缚在纳米粒子上。根据知识分子的优点，这种合作汇集了在跨学科环境中具有多样化的资格的研究人员，以在创造性和新颖的方法中研究材料科学问题。 Csula和Caltech的设施足以进行拟议的工作。 为了将更多的教师从Csula纳入PERM计划，提出了一项年度种子赠款计划。该计划将是一项具有竞争力的内部赠款计划，并将为创意小型研究项目，学生津贴和旅行以及用品提供资金。在PERM计划的整个过程中，授予资金的教师将有资格继续资金。 教育计划将包括学生研究计划，研究培训研讨会和科学研讨会以及学术建议和指导。学生将被指定为Prem Fellows，并将参加三个研究子项目。研究员将参加为期一年的主题讲习班，例如材料科学和化学职业，进行科学研究和研究伦理。学生将不断评估学生的学业进步，课程建议将在每个季度的教学之前进行。还建议与三所当地少数民族高中（罗斯福，加尔菲尔德和威尔逊）合作，为学术才华横溢的高中学生提供了夏季研究经验，其中有超过95％的拉丁裔入学人数。
