This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5.The Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site at Georgia Institute of Technology will continue to offer summer research opportunities for undergraduate students recruited nationwide and teachers from inner-city and suburban public high schools in the Atlanta area. Research topics are in multidisciplinary areas of Materials Science and Engineering and are grouped under three categories: (1) Materials for biological and sensor applications, (2) Materials for structural and extreme environments, and (3) Materials for energy applications. The REU program is for 8 weeks and will support 14 undergraduates and 6 teachers each year during 2009 to 2013. Participants receive research training in the laboratories of faculty mentors at Georgia Tech. Some students also participate in international research experience at institutions in Brazil, China, England, Japan, and Singapore, through established collaborations between faculty mentors at Georgia Tech and researchers at institutions abroad. While being immersed in one-on-one research with the faculty, the students attend presentations on various materials related topics, laboratory safety, technical communication, and guidelines for graduate school preparation. In addition, a one-day workshop on professional development focusing on ethics, entrepreneurship and public policy is also offered. The training fosters team work and prepares the participants to address difficult technological problems requiring multi-disciplinary and globally engaging approaches. This award is funded by the Division of Materials Research in the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate of National Science Foundation.

该奖项是根据2009年的《美国恢复和再投资法》（公法111-5。 - 亚特兰大地区的城市和郊区公立高中。 （3）REU计划的材料为8周，每年将在2009年至2013年间支持14名教师。通过佐治亚理工学院的教师导师与国外的研究人员之间的建立合作，在巴西，中国，英格兰，日本和新加坡的机构的国际研究经验。 在与教师的一对一研究中，学生们参加了有关各种材料相关主题，实验室安全，技术沟通和研究生院准备指南的演讲。此外，还提供了针对道德，企业家和公共政策的一日专业发展研讨会。培训促进了团队的工作，并为参与者做好准备解决需要多学科和全球吸引方法的困难技术问题。 该奖项由国家科学基金会数学和物理科学局材料研究部资助。
