This REU site is supported by both the Division of Chemistry in the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate, and the Engineering Directorate at the National Science Foundation. Dr. Andrew Greenberg, Professor Robert Hamers, and colleagues at the University of Wisconsin-Madison host the program entitled REU Site: Chemistry of Materials for Renewable Energy, (CMRE). This program supports a 10 week summer research experiences for 11 undergraduate students annually for three years. Students conduct individual research projects focused on chemistry and chemical engineering research applied to problems in renewable energy. Additionally, students receive professional development training in science and engineering communication. The diverse student cohort participating in research at this site is well-prepared for graduate school, and eventual employment as part of the country's technical workforce.Individual research projects include the development of new catalysts and materials for the conversion of light or chemical energy into usable electrical or mechanical energy. The CMRE REU program helps students to strengthen their written and oral communication skills through communication training, proposal presentations, mid-experience report writing, and poster presentations. To ensure proper mentoring and development of CMRE REU students, this project includes a mentoring workshop for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and faculty working directly with the REU Program.

该REU站点得到了数学和物理科学局的化学部和国家科学基金会的工程局的支持。威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的罗伯特·哈默斯（Robert Hamers）教授安德鲁·格林伯格（Andrew Greenberg）博士主持了题为REU网站的计划：可再生能源材料的化学作品（CMRE）。该计划每年为11个本科生提供10周的夏季研究经验，持续三年。学生开展的个人研究项目专注于化学和化学工程研究，适用于可再生能源问题。此外，学生接受科学和工程传播方面的专业发展培训。参与该站点研究的多元化学生队列已为研究生院做好了充分的准备，并且最终作为该国技术劳动力的一部分。个体研究项目包括开发新的催化剂和材料，以将光或化学能源转化为可用的电气或机械能量。 CMRE REU计划通过沟通培训，建议介绍，体验报告写作和海报演讲来帮助学生通过沟通培训，建议培训，中间建议来增强他们的书面和口头沟通技巧。为了确保CMRE REU学生的适当指导和发展，该项目包括针对研究生的指导研讨会，博士后研究员以及直接与REU计划合作的教师。
