Undergraduate students who have a solid background in mathematics and some knowledge of computation will be engaged in an eight-week research experience in computational number theory and combinatorics to be held at Clemson University. Members of underrepresented groups are particularly encouraged to apply. 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. The participants will be offered up to $400 in travel support, a dorm room to be shared with other participants in the REU, up to $800 for meals and a stipend of $2,900 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 or three and will pick one problem on which to focus for the remainder of the REU. The goal of the program is 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. Students will also be encouraged to attend appropriate conferences 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.

本科生谁拥有坚实的数学背景和一些计算知识将从事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。 特别鼓励代表性不足群体的成员申请。 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。 参与者将获得高达400美元的旅行支持，与REU的其他参与者共享宿舍，高达800美元的膳食和2，900美元的津贴作为他们参与该计划的回报。参与者将介绍各种工具，技术和计算数论和组合学的问题。 参与者将被分成两个或三个小组，并将选择一个问题，重点放在其余的REU。 该计划的目标是通过让学生有机会参加一个重要而有趣的研究项目，帮助学生在数学研究中获得更高水平的独立性。 还将鼓励学生参加适当的会议，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。
