This $511,191 three-year Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) 47.041 Engineering program, supports the "REU SITE: SOUTHEASTERN UNDERGRADUATE INTERNSHIP IN NANOTECHNOLOGY (SUIN)" initiative. The program, led by the Georgia Institute of Technology and the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, provides undergraduate students the opportunity to conduct cutting-edge nanotechnology research across a range of applications, including electronics, health, and the environment. Key objectives include recruiting women, minorities, and students from non-research institutions, developing their research and communication skills, and exposing them to potential graduate studies and careers in STEM fields. The program will take place at the Institute for Matter and Systems at Georgia Tech and the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, leveraging state-of-the-art facilities and a network of faculty mentors. Undergraduate participants will receive advanced training on nanotechnology equipment and complete individual research projects to be presented at a concluding program event. Sub-awards are planned under this grant.
