This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site award to the University of Wyoming, located in Laramie, WY, supports the training of 10 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2024-2026. In this program, funded by the Division of Chemistry, participants will pursue collaborative research projects focusing on analytical chemistry, sustainability, and renewable energy. Students will also take part in a professional development and ethics training program, with an emphasis on science communication and preparation for graduate school or industrial careers. This REU site broadens participation in STEM through independent research projects, workshop and seminar series. Participants are recruited from community colleges in the Wyoming region and neighboring states (MT, SD, NE, CO, UT, and ID). Students will work in chemistry research groups on a range of interdisciplinary projects related to renewable energy, polymers, and biochemistry. The hands-on research will be complemented by a variety of activities including seminars, professional development series, and travel to National Laboratories (National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and Idaho National Laboratory (INL)). The professional development series will additionally encompass seminars on scientific writing, scientific ethics, data visualization, and social media management.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.

该研究经验（REU）在怀俄明州拉拉米的怀俄明大学奖（REU）网站奖，在2024 - 2026年夏季，支持10个学生的培训10周。 在该计划中，由化学部资助，参与者将追求关注分析化学，可持续性和可再生能源的协作研究项目。学生还将参加专业发展和道德培训计划，重点是研究生院或工业职业的科学沟通和准备。通过独立的研究项目，研讨会和研讨会系列，此REU网站扩大了STEM的参与。 参与者是从怀俄明州和邻国（MT，SD，NE，CO，UT和ID）的社区大学招募的。学生将在化学研究小组中从事与可再生能源，聚合物和生物化学有关的一系列跨学科项目。 动手研究将得到各种活动，包括研讨会，专业发展系列以及前往国家实验室（国家可再生能源实验室（NREL）和爱达荷州国家实验室（INL））的旅行。 专业发展系列将涵盖有关科学写作，科学伦理，数据可视化和社交媒体管理的研讨会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛影响的评估来通过评估来支持的。
