This three year renewal Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site Program, SUNFEST: Summer Undergraduate Research in Sensor Technologies, at the University of Pennsylvania, will offer a diverse cohort of undergraduate students the opportunity to work on research projects involving sensor technologies with the goal to develop new materials and devices. By working on a meaningful research project of their own in a dynamic and supportive environment, students will contribute to academically-based discovery that will lead to better devices and systems for medical, robotics, communications, environmental, energy, agricultural and surveillance applications. Each of these projects deals with a scientifically important topic for advancing the understanding of a specific sensor phenomenon that have "real-life" applications. An important focus of this REU will be to extend these research experiences to students at small, four-year colleges where research experiences are less abundant and to engage students who come from groups traditionally underrepresented in science and engineering, including first generation, low income, underrepresented minority students and women.Over 10 summer weeks, the University of Pennsylvania will host 10 undergraduate students who will be involved in high quality, cutting-edge research projects related to sensor technology. Research projects will include sensor phenomena, materials, nano- and micro-fabricated sensors, sensing using quantum systems and sensor applications in medicine, agriculture and robotics. To foster students' development as future researchers, they will participate in weekly group meetings and seminars in their labs. In addition, the REU offers professional development activities for the student participants, include workshops on writing proposals and technical reports, responsible conduct of research, applying to graduate school, and effective oral presentations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

宾夕法尼亚大学的本科生（REU）现场计划的这三年续约研究经验，Sunfest：Summer Bladedure in Sensor Technologies的夏季本科研究将为涉及开发新材料和设备的传感器技术的研究项目提供各种各样的本科生。通过在动态和支持性的环境中进行有意义的研究项目，学生将为基于学术的发现做出贡献，这将为医疗，机器人技术，通信，环境，能源，农业，农业和监视应用提供更好的设备和系统。这些项目中的每一个都涉及一个非常重要的主题，以推进对具有“现实生活”应用的特定传感器现象的理解。该REU的一个重要重点是将这些研究经验扩展到四年制的小学学院的学生，在这些研究经历不那么丰富，并吸引来自传统上在科学和工程领域中占人数不足的学生，包括第一代，低收入，缺乏代表性的少数族裔学生和女性。多于10夏季，宾夕法尼亚大学的研究员将涉及10个夏季研究员，他们将涉及10次培训的学生。研究项目将包括传感器现象，材料，纳米和微型制造传感器，使用量子系统以及医学，农业和机器人技术中的传感器应用传感。为了促进学生作为未来研究人员的发展，他们将参加每周的小组会议和实验室研讨会。此外，REU为学生参与者提供专业发展活动，包括有关撰写建议和技术报告的讲习班，负责任的研究，适用于研究生院以及有效的口头演讲。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛的影响来通过评估来通过评估来获得支持的。
