This award is to support the renewal of the REU site run by JILA (formerly Joint Institute of Laboratory Astrophysics) and the Department of Physics at the University of Colorado. The primary objective is to provide opportunities for undergraduate students to participate in high quality ongoing research programs. This year selected students will spend 10 weeks during the summer at the University of Colorado in Boulder. The intellectual focus of the REU program is physics and undergraduate students are paired up with preeminent faculty to do research in the fields of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Biophysics, Condensed Matter Physics, Elementary Particle and Nuclear Physics, Plasma Physics, Physics Education Research, and Geophysics. Although the main emphasis of the summer is centered around each student's individual research lab, where the students are expected to master at least a part of a large task, a variety of other activities take place during the program. These include ethics, electronics, and machining classes, a "Getting Into Grad School" discussion, as well as lab tours and a weekly science seminar series aimed at the students. The program culminates with a day of presentations given by each of the REU students.

该奖项旨在支持 JILA（前身为实验室天体物理联合研究所）和科罗拉多大学物理系运营的 REU 站点的更新。主要目标是为本科生提供参与高质量持续研究项目的机会。今年选定的学生将在夏季在博尔德科罗拉多大学度过 10 周。 REU项目的智力重点是物理学，本科生与杰出的教师配对，在原子、分子和光学物理、生物物理学、凝聚态物理、基本粒子和核物理、等离子体物理学、物理教育研究等领域进行研究和地球物理学。尽管暑期的重点是每个学生的个人研究实验室，学生应该至少掌握一项大型任务的一部分，但该项目期间还会举办各种其他活动。其中包括道德、电子和机械课程、“进入研究生院”讨论、实验室参观和针对学生的每周科学研讨会系列。该项目以 REU 每位学生为期一天的演讲结束。
