University of Washington Molecular Engineering Materials Center (MEM-C) Summer Research Experience for Undergraduates Posted by: nicolacs / November 19, 2020 November 19, 2020 University of Washington’s Molecular Engineering Materials Center (MEM-C) is a Materials Research and Engineering Center (MRSEC) funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF 1719797). MEM-C aims to accelerate the development of future energy conversion, information processing, and sensing technologies through design

Center for Bioplastics and Biocomposites Internship Posted by: alemanem / February 1, 2018 February 1, 2018 Center for Bioplastics and Biocomposites (CB2) provides undergraduate students a chance to participate in industry-directed fundamental research opportunities in the fields of bioplastics and biocomposites. The students will gain hands-on experience with synthesis, processing, and characterization of biobased plastics and composite materials. See the REU flyer-2018 for more information

the variety that chemistry offers as a dynamic field of interest. Studying nanoparticles allowed me to become more familiar with material, physical, and inorganic chemistry, which are branches that I am interested in,” reflected Smith. “I enjoyed having the opportunity to use characterization techniques like X-Ray Diffraction, Small Angle X-ray Scattering, and Transmission Electron Microscopy. Before this research experience, I knew that I wanted to go to graduate school, and this experience

of bioplastics and biocomposites. The students will gain hands-on experience with synthesis, processing, and characterization of biobased plastics and composite materials. The REU program will continue for 3 years, i.e. Summer ’17, Summer ’18, and Summer ’19. Each year, 10 students (recruited primarily from academic institutions where research programs in STEM are limited) will work on research conducted by the CB2, with 5 students conducting their research at Washington State University and 5

their formation in November 2016, the task force has been focusing on financial help for students and outreach to the PLU community. Like Kim, who could not take out any loans due to his immigration status and had to work his way through school, financial means are of great concern for many undocumented students. The task force partnered with PLU librarians to create a library for all students who cannot afford textbook costs. Thomas Kim '15 “We recognize that access to course materials intersects
