Vertical Integral of the Research and Educational Activities in Mathematics at the University of Georgia

项目名称：佐治亚大学数学研究与教学活动的纵向整合摘要：本项目将利用佐治亚大学数学系的传统优势，利用近年来的改进和创新，对教师、博士后、研究生和本科生的活动进行纵向整合。这些小组将以专门设计的VIGRE研讨会和项目为中心进行小组会议。六个学科VIGRE研讨会将由一个广泛关注的“计算数学”研讨会来补充，该研讨会将使参与者从计算焦点接触到数学的许多领域。这4名博士后将有时间与合适的教师合作，加强和扩大他们的研究项目，同时提高他们的教学和沟通技巧。这10个研究生培训项目的目的是在5年内培养出合格的新博士，他们在课堂上有丰富的经验，并有广阔的职业选择视野。适当的本科生将通过参加VIGRE研讨会获得研究的第一次机会，而被选中的大一和大二学生将通过暑期研究经验被鼓励主修数学。该系对本科生的奉献，对研究生的精心管理和对博士后的指导的传统，为VIGRE的活动提供了一个自然的环境。

Proposal Number: DMS 0089927Project Title: Vertical Integration of the Research and EducationalActivities in Mathematics at the University of GeorgiaAbstract This project will capitalize on the traditional strengths of theUniversity of Georgia's Mathematics Department and take advantage of recentimprovements and innovations to vertically integrate the activities offaculty, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students and undergraduates. Thesegroups will meet in teams centered around specially designed VIGRE seminarsand programs. The half-a-dozen disciplinary VIGRE seminars will becomplemented by a broadly focused "Mathematics of Computation" seminarwhich will expose participants to many areas of mathematics from acomputational focus. The 4 postdoctoral fellows will be given time to enhance and broaden theirresearch programs working with an appropriate faculty member, whileupgrading their teaching and communication skills. The 10 graduatetraineeships are designed to produce, in five years, well-qualified newdoctorates, with significant experience in the classroom, and a broad viewof available career options. Appropriate undergraduates will get a firstexposure of research by participating in a VIGRE seminar, while selectedfreshmen and sophomores will be encouraged by a summer research experienceto major in mathematics. The department's traditions of dedication toundergraduates, careful stewardship of graduate students and mentoring ofpostdoctoral fellows, provide a natural environment for VIGRE activity.
