The Summer Institute in Mathematics for Undergraduates (SIMU) at the University of Puerto Rico -- Humacao is a six-week research program in the mathematical sciences. The program is co-directed by Principal Investigator Professor Ivelisse Rubio, University of Puerto Rico - Humacao, and Co-Principal Investigator Professor Herbert A. Medina, Loyola Marymount University. In addition, each summer two faculty members serve as seminar leaders and research directors for SIMU. In summer 2000, these faculty are Reinhard Laubenbacher, New Mexico State University, and Victor Moll, Tulane University. Twenty-four undergraduate students will participate each year in SIMU from 2000 - 2002. Each year, half of the students will be women.The program is designed for talented Latino and Native American---these are the populations served by the Society for Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS), an organization with which the programs has close ties---undergraduates who want to engage in undergraduate mathematics research. During SIMU students will complete an undergraduate research project in an active area of mathematics. The mathematical areas in which students will work in summer 2000 are computational algebra and integration of rational functions. Students will present their research at an end-of-program colloquium series and write a technical report on their work. After SIMU, students will present their research in academic conferences such as the annual SACNAS Conference and the Joint Mathematics Meetings.The goal of SIMU is to increase the number of Latinos and Native Americans earning graduate degrees and pursuing research careers in the mathematical sciences. Professor's Rubio and Medina believe that providing SIMU participants a rich and intensive research experience in an active area of mathematics is an excellent method for motivating and preparing students for graduate programs and careers in the mathematical sciences.The SIMU web page has more information about the program: http://cuhwww.upr.clu.edu.

波多黎各大学- Humacao的本科生数学暑期研究所是一个为期六周的数学科学研究方案。 该计划由波多黎各大学的首席研究员Ivelisse鲁比奥教授和联合首席研究员赫伯特A教授共同指导。梅迪纳洛约拉马里蒙特大学 此外，每年夏天两名教师担任研讨会的领导人和研究主任SIMU。 在2000年夏天，这些教师是莱因哈德劳本巴赫，新墨西哥州州立大学，和维克托莫尔，杜兰大学。 从2000年至2002年，每年将有24名本科生参加SIMU。 每年，一半的学生将是女性。该计划是专为有才华的拉丁美洲人和美洲原住民-这些人口的社会促进奇卡诺斯和美洲原住民在科学（SACNAS），一个组织，该计划有密切的联系-本科生谁想要从事本科数学研究。 在SIMU期间，学生将完成数学活跃领域的本科研究项目。 学生将在2000年夏季工作的数学领域是计算代数和有理函数的积分。 学生将在课程结束时的系列研讨会上展示他们的研究，并就他们的工作撰写技术报告。 在SIMU之后，学生将在学术会议上展示他们的研究，如年度SACNAS会议和联合数学会议。SIMU的目标是增加获得研究生学位和追求数学科学研究事业的拉丁美洲人和美洲原住民的数量。 教授的鲁比奥和梅迪纳认为，提供SIMU参与者在数学活跃领域的丰富和深入的研究经验是一个很好的方法，激励和准备学生的研究生课程和职业生涯在数学科学。SIMU网页有更多关于该计划的信息：http://cuhwww.upr.clu.edu。
