Summer Undergraduate Mathematical Sciences Research Institute

夏季本科生数学科学研究所（SUMSRI）是在迈阿密大学数学与统计学系的指导下进行的一个项目。我们寻求有才华的本科生在数学科学谁有兴趣追求更高的学位。由于少数族裔和女性数学科学家的短缺，我们对非裔美国人和其他未被充分代表的少数族裔和女性特别感兴趣，但不限于此。SUMSRI的主要目标是：-通过鼓励少数民族学生和妇女成为数学研究科学家，解决少数民族数学科学家短缺的问题。-为学生提供研究环境，提高学生的研究能力。-提高学生的团队合作能力，并给予他们长期的支持小组。-提供专业的榜样。-提高学生的技术写作能力。-让参与者有机会写一篇技术研究论文，并在数学会议上发表演讲。-告知参与者可获得的经济援助和研究生院的机会。-让学生意识到数学科学领域的就业机会。-帮助学生准备GRE考试。为了实现这些目标，SUMSRI将于2002年6月2日至7月19日在俄亥俄州牛津市的迈阿密大学校园内进行。在这七个星期里，学生们将参加数学、统计学或计算机科学方面的问题研讨会。该计划还将包括一个技术写作研讨会，一个GRE准备研讨会，两个代数和实分析的短期课程，以及知名数学科学家的研讨会演讲。此外，还将举行小组讨论，介绍数学科学领域的研究生院和就业机会。SUMSRI将支付学生的交通费、食宿费和生活用品费。每位学生还将获得2500美元的津贴。还可提供旅费和支助某些选定的国家会议的经费。理想的候选人将完成微积分系列和至少一门以证明为基础的数学或统计学课程。候选人应该在参加SUMSRI后进入大三或大四。所有候选人必须在参加完SUMSRI项目后作为本科生返回自己的母校。该研究所目前没有资助国际学生。

The Summer Undergraduate Mathematical Science Research Institute (SUMSRI) is a program conducted under the guidance of Miami University's Department of Mathematics and Statistics. We seek talented undergraduate students in the mathematical sciences who are interested in pursuing advanced degrees. Because of the shortage of minorities and women mathematical scientists, we are especially interested in, but not limited to, African Americans and other underrepresented minorities and women. The main goals of SUMSRI are: -Address the shortage of minority mathematical scientists by encouraging minority students and women to become mathematical research scientists. -Provide the students with a research environment and improve their research abilities.-Improve the students' ability to work in groups and give them a long term support group. -Provide professional role models. -Improve the students' technical writing skills. -Give the participants an opportunity to write a technical research paper and present a talk at a mathematics conference. -Inform the participants of available financial aid and opportunities for graduate school. -Make the students aware of career opportunities in the mathematical sciences.-Prepare the students for the GRE. To accomplish these goals, SUMSRI will run from June 2 to July 19, 2002, on Miami University's campus in Oxford, Ohio. During these seven weeks, students will participate in problem seminars in mathematics, statistics, or computer science. The program will also include a technical writing seminar, a GRE preparation workshop, two short courses on algebra and real analysis, and colloquium talks given by well known mathematical scientists.There will also be panel discussions to present information on graduate school and career opportunities in the mathematical sciences. SUMSRI will pay for the students travel, room, board, and supplies. Each student willalso be given a $2,500 stipend. Funds may also be available for travel and support to some selected national meetings. The ideal candidate will have completed the calculus series and at least one proof-based mathematics or statistics course with distinction. The candidate should be entering their junior or senior year after attending SUMSRI. All candidates must be returning to their home institutions as undergraduates after the SUMSRI experience. SUMSRI is not currently funded to support international students.
