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

项目编号：DMS 0089927项目标题：格鲁吉亚大学数学研究和教育活动的垂直整合摘要该项目将利用格鲁吉亚大学数学系的传统优势，并利用最近的改进和创新来垂直整合教师、博士后研究员、研究生和本科生的活动。这些小组将围绕特别设计的Vigre研讨会和项目展开小组会议。六个学科Vigre研讨会将由一个广泛关注的“计算数学”研讨会来实施，这将使参与者从计算的焦点接触到数学的许多领域。这4名博士后研究员将有时间加强和扩大他们的研究项目，与适当的教员合作，同时提高他们的教学和沟通技能。这10个毕业生培训项目的目的是在五年内培养出合格的新博士，他们在课堂上拥有丰富的经验，并对可用的职业选择有广泛的看法。合适的本科生将通过参加Vigre研讨会获得第一次接触研究的机会，而被选中的一年级和二年级学生将受到暑期研究经验的鼓励，主修数学。该系致力于研究生的传统，对研究生的细心管理，以及对博士后研究员的指导，为Vigre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.
