REU Site: CS Undergraduate Research at Towson University

该项目在陶森大学建立了一个REU站点，研究计算机科学的几个领域，包括操作系统、应用密码学、现实世界算法、网络安全、无线网络、智能代理、认知机器人和计算机视觉。虽然建议的学生项目涉及许多计算机科学专业，但安全性是这个站点的一个重要主题。这个REU网站每年夏天将招收8名实习生参加正在进行的国家科学基金会和行业赞助的PI和陶森大学教师导师的研究。除了正式的研究项目外，该网站还将举办马里兰大学、NASA、约翰霍普金斯大学、NIST等科学家的一系列讲座，并将赞助到附近的学术、政府和工业实验室进行实地考察。暑期课程将提供申请研究生院的特殊培训，并指导学生参加研究生入学考试（GRE）。这个网站的一个亮点将是为期两天的道德单元。

This project establishes an REU site at Towson University in several fields of computer science, including operating systems, applied cryptography, real-world algorithms, network security, wireless networks, intelligent agents, cognitive robotics, and computer vision. Although the proposed student projects are in a number of computer science specialties, security is a strong theme at this site. This REU site will engage 8 interns per summer in the on-going NSF and industry sponsored research of the PI and faculty mentors at Towson University. In addition to the formal research projects, the site will host a series of lectures by scientists from University of Maryland, NASA, Johns Hopkins, NIST, etc., and it will sponsor field trips to nearby academic, governmental, and industrial laboratories. The summer program will provide special training on applying for graduate school, and will coach students on taking the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). A highlight of this site will be a 2-day ethics unit.
