Mathematical Sciences: The Applied Mathematics Laboratory A New Concept in Graduate Training in Applied Mathematics

该项目包括建立一个应用数学实验室，这将为应用数学研究生的教育和培训提供新的体验。复杂的实验和数学建模相结合的方式，不仅教好的数学建模相结合的方式，不仅教好的数学，而且帮助学生发展关键的专业技能。与许多数学建模的课堂课程不同，在数学建模课程中，问题的研究往往与物理根源分离开来，而拟议的实验室通过动手实验工作在相当高级的水平上建立和检验模型。这种方法以一种只有直接观察才能达到的方式来发展和磨练学生的直觉。除了课堂上的纯科学内容外，实验室的设计还旨在通过让学生体验教会他们思考、计算、团队合作、沟通和优先考虑的经验，使他们在智力上成熟。这些正是当今雇主所追求的品质，也是毕业生在工作场所所期望的品质。

This project involves the development of an Applied mathematics Laboratory which will provide a new experience in the education and training of applied mathematics graduate students. Sophisticated experiments and mathematical modeling are combined in a way that not only teaches good mathematical modeling are combined in a way that not only teaches good mathematics but also helps the students develop critical professional skills. Unlike may class- room courses in mathematical modeling, in which problems are often studied in a way that is isolated from their physical origins, the proposed laboratory builds and examines models through hands on experimental work at a rather advanced level. this approach develops and sharpens a students intuition in a way that only direct observation can. In addition to the purely scientific content of the class the laboratory is designed to mature the students intellectually by exposing them to experiences that will teach them to think, compute, work as a team, communicate and prioritize. These are precisely the qualities that are sought by today's employers and that will be expected of graduates in the work place.
