REU in Computational Number Theory and Combinatorics.

八名学生谁拥有坚实的数学背景和一些计算知识将被选中参加为期八周的研究经验，在计算数论和组合将在克莱姆森大学举行。 其中四个职位将优先考虑在美国东南部扎根的合格申请人，前提是该地区有足够数量的合格申请人。 这四个特殊职位中不超过两个将由克莱姆森大学的学生填补。 被选中的八名学生将获得高达350美元的旅行支持，与REU的另一名参与者共用一间宿舍，高达600美元的膳食和2，660美元的津贴，以换取他们参与该计划。 与会者将介绍各种工具，技术和计算数论和组合学的问题。 参与者将被分成两人一组，并允许选择一个问题，重点放在其余的REU。 该计划的目标是帮助学生通过让他们有机会参加一个重要而有趣的研究项目来实现更高水平的数学研究独立性。 在计划的前两周，参与者将每天与PI和Co-PI会面。 随着时间的推移，这些会议将变得不那么频繁，以使学生达到更高的独立水平。 还将鼓励学生参加东南地区会议的数字（SERMON）在明年春天，并在那里介绍他们的工作。作为对他们的研究工作的补充，学生将被要求参加每周一次的系列讲座。 这些讲座将由教师谁已被公认为领导者在各个领域相关的学生的研究问题，谁已经证明了清楚地沟通数学思想的能力，以不同层次的数学成熟度的观众。

Eight students who have a solid background in mathematics and some knowledge of computation will be selected to participate in an eight-week research experience in computational number theory and combinatorics to be held at Clemson University. Preference for four of these positions will be given to qualified applicants who have roots in the Southeastern United States, provided that there are a sufficient number of qualified applicants from this region. No more than two of these four special positions will be filled by Clemson University students. The eight students selected will be offered up to $350 in travel support, a dorm room to be shared with another participant in the REU, up to $600 for meals and a stipend of $2,660 in return for their participation in this program. Participants will be introduced to various tools, techniques and problems from computational number theory and combinatorics. The participants will be divided into teams of two and allowed to pick one problem on which to focus for the remainder of the REU. The goal of the program will be to help students attain a higher level of independence in mathematical research by giving them the opportunity to take part in a significant and interesting research project. For the first two weeks of the program participants will meet daily with the PI and co-PI. As time progresses, these meetings will become less frequent in order to allow the students to reach an increased level of independence. Students will also be encouraged to attend the SouthEastern Regional Meeting On Numbers (SERMON) in the spring of the following year and present their work there. As a complement to working on their research, students will be required to attend a weekly lecture series. These lectures will be given by faculty who have been recognized as leaders in the various fields related to the students' research problems and who have demonstrated the ability to clearly communicate mathematical ideas to audiences of varying levels of mathematical maturity.
