Vertical Integration of Research and Education in the Mathematical Sciences - VIGRE: Berkeley Statistics VIGRE Project

提案ID: 0130526标题：伯克利统计VIGRE项目pi: John rice机构：加州大学伯克利分校摘要伯克利统计学系将运作一个垂直整合的研究和教育计划，涉及本科生，研究生，博士后研究员和教师。该计划的目标是生产统计训练有素的专业人士，他们将在商业，政府和学术部门为我们的社会做出贡献。该程序包含几个集成组件。本科生层面的创新包括课程改革、研究研讨会和本科生研究体验。研究生部分包括教育、指导教学经验、研究和旨在培养研究生在跨学科环境中互动的扩展部分。博士后部分包括指导研究和教学经验。在这些项目中招募传统上代表性不足的群体将通过伯克利边缘的资源得到加强，伯克利边缘是一个校园nsf研究生教育和教授联盟，其目标是将科学、数学和工程领域的少数族裔博士人数增加两倍。

Proposal ID: 0130526Title: Berkeley Statistics VIGRE ProjectPI: John RiceInstitution: University of California - BerkeleyABSTRACTThe Berkeley Statistics Department will operate a vertically integrated research and education program involving undergraduate majors, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty.The goal of the program is to produce statistically trained professionals who will contribute to our society in the commercial, governmental, and academic sectors. The program contains several integrated components. Innovations at the undergraduate level include curriculum reform, research seminars, and research experiences for undergraduates. The graduate student component includes education, mentored teaching experiences, research, and broadening components aimed at training graduate students to interact in interdisciplinary environments. The postdoctoral component includes mentored research and teaching experiences. Recruitment of traditionally under-represented groups into these programs will be strengthened by the resources of the Berkeley Edge, a campus NSF-Alliance for Graduate Education and the Professoriate, the goal of which is to triple minority Ph.D. production in the sciences, mathematics, and engineering.
