Mathematical Sciences: Traineeships in Mathematics and Computation in Engineering

小行星9256439 国家科学基金会研究生研究培训计划的主要目标是增加有才华的美国本科生在科学和工程的关键和新兴领域的博士课程入学人数。 建议征求机构的现有设施和工作人员可以容纳更多的研究生在博士。 高质量的节目。 该方案还旨在帮助加强国家所有地理部门和所有代表性不足群体的人力资源基础。 研究生研究培训奖学金是学生支持的一揽子计划。 获得奖学金的学院和大学负责挑选受训人员、留住受训人员和管理受训人员。 威斯康星州的大学将开发一个程序，以培养博士水平的研究人员在数学和计算科学与工程之间的接口工作。学员将有能力采用“国家的最先进的”数学和计算方法在工程问题的研究，以及开发新的方法，以应对这些问题的能力。 该计划将侧重于数学建模过程，包括有关假设的有效性和计算可行性的问题。 知识和经验的广度将通过广泛的课程工作和各种科学的互动和经验来强调。

9256439 Kurtz The principal objective of the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Traineeship Program is to increase the numbers of talented U.S. undergraduates enrolling in doctoral programs in critical and emerging areas of science and engineering. Proposals were solicited from institutions whose existing facilities and staff could accommodate additional graduate students in Ph.D. programs of high quality. The program is also intended to contribute to strengthening the Nation's human resource base across all geographic sectors and among all under-represented groups. Graduate Research Traineeship awards are packages of student support. The colleges and universities that receive the awards are responsible for the selection of trainees, retention of trainees, and administration of traineeships. The University of Wisconsin will develop a program to train doctoral level researchers working at the interface between the mathematical and computational sciences and engineering. Trainees will have the capability to employ "state-of-the-art" mathematical and computational methodology in the study of engineering problems as well as the capability to develop new methodology in response to these problems. The program will focus on the mathematical modeling process including issues regarding the validity of assumptions and computational feasibility. Breadth of knowledge and experience will be emphasized through a wide range of course work and a variety of scientific interactions and experiences.
