Title:
Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU)--Materials Science Research
and Engineering
Center
<br><br>
Sponsor: Johns
Hopkins University<br><br>
SYNOPSIS: <br>
Each summer, the Materials Science Research and Engineering
Center<br>
provides support for six to eight undergraduates to spend<br>
approximately ten weeks doing materials research in one of the<br>
laboratories of the JHU MRSEC, either at Johns Hopkins University,<br>
Brown University, or Carnegie-Mellon University. Under the
guidance<br>
of the MRSEC faculty in physics, materials science, and engineering,<br>
students conduct research in such topics as nanowire structures,<br>
nanoparticle self-assembly, half-metallic ferromagnets, spin-valve<br>
structures, and nanocrystalline metals and alloys. <br><br>
