The NSF-REU Program in Extremal Graph Theory and Dynamical Systems at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) will engage students in eight weeks of intensive research. Eight students will be chosen in each of three summers. The program's goals are to: (i) involve undergraduates, including women and minorities, in mathematical and computer science research, (ii) assist students in the dissemination of their research through conference presentations and refereed publications, (iii) encourage students to pursue graduate studies in the mathematical sciences, and (iv) provide a well-rounded research experience that includes feedback from outside researchers, mentoring in public speaking, scientific writing, and professional ethics. The students will work directly with RIT faculty and receive additional feedback on their projects from outside experts. The students will also participate in additional educational activities, including seminars given by outside speakers, and the preparation of a student travel grant proposal. The program will have a significant research component. Research results in discrete mathematics and computer science have experienced a dramatic increase in interest in recent years. Many open mathematical problems have been solved by new algorithmic methods derived from computer science. Our interest lies on the imprecisely defined boundary between computer science and mathematics. We will take advantage of methods from mathematics and computer science and expect results in both areas.The investigators and senior personnel for the project include Darren Narayan, Stanislaw Radziszowski, William Basener, and Tamas Wiandt.The site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.

罗彻斯特理工学院（RIT）的NSF-REU极端图论和动力系统项目将吸引学生进行为期八周的深入研究。每三个夏天将选出八名学生。该计划的目标是：(1)让包括女性和少数族裔在内的本科生参与数学和计算机科学研究；(2)通过会议演讲和评审出版物帮助学生传播他们的研究成果；(3)鼓励学生攻读数学科学的研究生课程；(4)提供全面的研究经验，包括外部研究人员的反馈、公开演讲、科学写作和职业道德方面的指导。学生们将直接与RIT教师一起工作，并从外部专家那里获得关于他们项目的额外反馈。学生们还将参加额外的教育活动，包括由外部演讲者举办的研讨会，以及准备学生旅行补助金提案。该计划将有一个重要的研究组成部分。近年来，离散数学和计算机科学的研究成果得到了极大的关注。许多开放的数学问题已经通过计算机科学衍生的新算法方法得到了解决。我们的兴趣在于计算机科学和数学之间不精确定义的边界。我们将利用数学和计算机科学的方法，并期望在这两个领域取得成果。该项目的调查人员和高级人员包括达伦·纳拉扬、斯坦尼斯拉夫·拉齐索夫斯基、威廉·巴塞纳和塔马斯·维安特。该站点由国防部与NSF REU项目合作支持。
