Mathematical Sciences: Mathematical Research Experience for Undergraduates Site at Louisiana State University

马登9322278 该奖项为路易斯安那州立大学本科生项目的研究经验扩展提供资金。 该项目将通过机构资源支持12名学生，并从这笔赠款中增加4名学生。 该计划为期八周，重点研究代数几何和纽结理论。 两名教师顾问将协调这项工作。 学生将在小组工作，并预计在该计划的过程中进行演示。 访问科学家的讲座将穿插其间。 所有参与者都将被期望写上他们的经验与更成功的准备文件出版或在专业会议上演示的结果。 招聘将通过亲自访问区域机构进行。 将努力吸引代表性不足群体的学生提出申请。 大学资源的可用性，如计算机实验室将增加活动的强度。 ***

Madden 9322278 This award provides funds for the expansion of a Research Experiences for Undergraduates Program at Louisiana State University. The project will support twelve students through institutional resources and additional four from this grant. The program runs for eight weeks focusing on research in the areas of algebraic geometry and knot theory. Two faculty advisors will coordinate the effort. Students will work in small groups and be expected to make presentations during the course of the program. Interspersed will be lectures by visiting scientists. All participants will be expected to write up the results of their experience with the more successful preparing papers for publication or presentation at professional meetings. Recruiting will be done by personal visits to regional institutions. Efforts will be made to attract applications from students in under represented groups. Availability of university resources such as a computer laboratory will add to the strength of the activity. ***
