This REU Site program for Tire Engineering is a multidisciplinary research program for undergraduate students. This site will train 10 undergraduate students each year by providing them with research as well as hands-on training that will help them with their future education as well as career opportunities. The students are subjected to all aspects of tire engineering and are provided with individual challenging research projects that include conceptual, theoretical and numerical design and analysis, and hands-on components in state-of-the-art research laboratories. The individual research projects are integrated into an interdisciplinary, team-based environment where research results will be used to prove a hypothesis. Talented community college and university undergraduate students, particularly underrepresented and women, are recruited to conduct research in this field. Through this REU Site, a diverse program is created and students are motivated to continue their studies towards a bachelor degree (for the community college students) and a graduate degree (for the university students). This project is fully supported by the National Science Foundation Division of Engineering Education and Centers.

此轮胎工程的REU网站计划是针对本科生的多学科研究计划。该网站每年将通过为他们提供研究以及动手培训来培训10名本科生，这将帮助他们进行未来的教育以及职业机会。学生受到轮胎工程的各个方面的影响，并提供了一个具有挑战性的研究项目，包括概念，理论和数值设计和分析以及最先进的研究实验室中的动手组件。单个研究项目被整合到跨学科的，基于团队的环境中，其中研究结果将用于证明假设。才华横溢的社区学院和大学的本科生，特别是代表性不足和女性，在该领域进行研究。通过此REU网站，创建了一个多样化的计划，并有动力继续学习学士学位（对于社区大学生）和研究生学位（对于大学生）。该项目得到了国家科学基金会教育和中心的全面支持。
