EEC-0648166Christopher WhiteThis award entitled "SURFing the Building and Fire Research Laboratory (BFRL): A NSF/NIST Partnership" will provide research opportunities for outstanding students from diverse backgrounds to collaborate with internationally known NIST scientists in the fields of material science, structural engineering, building environment science, and fire science and engineering. A research experience at NIST provides a positive impact at a critical point in the careers of these underrepresented students who have yet to be encouraged to pursue careers in science, math and engineering. Additionally, the students attend a variety of seminars, participate in ethics training, and present their own results at both local and national scientific meetings. Through this REU program the students become aware of what a full time research career feels like and experience first-hand how they can make a difference through science and engineering research.This REU program will focus its outreach to colleges and universities that demonstrate strong hands-on undergraduate science curricula and a commitment to the education of women, minorities, and students with disabilities. The program will dramatically impact the undergraduate students and motivate them to pursue graduate education and to consider careers in teaching and research.

EEC-0648166Christopher White这个名为“SURFing the Building and Fire Research Laboratory (BFRL): A NSF/NIST Partnership”的奖项将为来自不同背景的优秀学生提供与国际知名的 NIST 科学家在材料科学、结构工程领域合作的研究机会、建筑环境科学、消防科学与工程。 NIST 的研究经历在这些代表性不足的学生职业生涯的关键时刻产生了积极影响，这些学生尚未被​​鼓励从事科学、数学和工程领域的职业。 此外，学生们还参加各种研讨会，参加道德培训，并在地方和国家科学会议上展示自己的成果。 通过这个 REU 项目，学生们将了解全职研究生涯的感觉，并亲身体验如何通过科学和工程研究做出贡献。这个 REU 项目将重点推广到那些表现出强大动手能力的学院和大学。关于本科科学课程以及对妇女、少数民族和残疾学生教育的承诺。 该计划将极大地影响本科生，并激励他们追求研究生教育并考虑从事教学和研究职业。
