Program in Mathematics for Young Scientists

9452680史蒂文斯波士顿大学旨在启动一个年轻的学者计划，称为数学计划的年轻科学家，PROMYS，包括一个密集的六个星期的住宅暑期课程的雄心勃勃的60名学生谁已经完成了9年级到11年级。PROMYS为45名一年级学生和15名返校学生提供服务。学生由18名数学经验丰富的大学年龄的辅导员和10名教师提供建议。该计划的核心是学生通过个人和集体努力解决数论中各种具有挑战性的问题所获得的经验。在1995年，学生还将学习抽象代数，几何拓扑和组合数学。每周不同的客座讲师向参与者介绍相关的科学领域，哲学和伦理问题以及数学和科学的职业选择。后续活动包括开放式问题集，建议阅读清单，学生在自己学校的演讲，以及PROMYS通讯。***

9452680 Stevens Boston University seeks to initiate a Young Scholars program, called Program in Mathematics for Young Scientists, PROMYS, consisting of an intensive six week residential summer program for an ambitious group of 60 students who have completed grades 9 through 11. PROMYS serves 45 first year students and 15 returning students. Students are advised by 18 mathematically experienced college-aged counselors and 10 faculty members. The heart of the program is the experience gained by students through their individual and collective efforts to solve an assortment of challenging problems in Number Theory. In 1995, students will also study Abstract Algebra, Geometric Topology, and Combinatorics. Diverse weekly guest lecturers introduce participants to related scientific fields, philosophical and ethical questions and career options in mathematics and science. Follow-up activities include an Open-Door Problem Set, Suggested Reading List, student presentations in their own schools, and the PROMYS newsletter. ***
