The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Oakland University will host an eight week REU summer research program, Computational and Numerical Statistics and Mathematics, CaNSaM, for undergraduate students. The goal is to provide talented under-represented minority students with research experience and training in the computational aspects of the mathematical sciences. Ten students with majors in the sciences, engineering, and mathematics will be recruited from Michigan and other areas of the United States. Each student will work under initial close supervision with one or more of the six faculty mentors in an area of computational mathematics (medical simulations, engineering modeling, routing problems, computational algebraic geometry) or statistics (high throughput screening analysis), leading to independent work by the end of the eight week period. Weekly informal discussion sessions with all participants and mentors will provide shared experiences and exposure to a wider range of problems with a computational focus. Each student will spend a significant portion of the first four weeks of the proposed eight week session in a class on scientific visualization. Each student participant will receive student memberships in the AMS, the MAA, SIAM, and where appropriate ASA. Students will engage in their own research projects, the scientific visualization course, weekly group meetings, special guest lectures and events aimed at eventual job placement, midterm and final oral presentations, a final written presentation and weekly social events. Students will construct a web site describing their project and results. CaNSaM offers undergraduate students the opportunity to participate in active numerical and computational research. The participants will gain insights and develop skills for identifying and solving problems that are amenable to computer simulation or solution. They will also develop visual, written, and oral skills in communicating mathematics and statistics. The kinds of close contacts developed in this program will be an incentive for participants' further study and eventual employment in mathematics or statistics. Participants in the program will become role models for underrepresented minorities to help encourage mathematically talented students to pursuecareers in mathematics and statistics. Students in the program will be encouraged to make themselvesvisible in their respective communities.

奥克兰大学数学与统计系将为本科生举办为期八周的REU夏季研究计划，计算和数值统计与数学，CaNSaM。目标是为有才华的少数民族学生提供数学科学计算方面的研究经验和培训。将从密歇根州和美国其他地区招募10名科学、工程和数学专业的学生。每个学生将在最初的密切监督下与计算数学（医学模拟，工程建模，路由问题，计算代数几何）或统计（高通量筛选分析）领域的六名教师导师中的一名或多名合作，在八周结束时独立工作。每周与所有参与者和导师的非正式讨论会议将提供共享的经验和接触到更广泛的问题与计算的重点。每个学生将花费在科学可视化类的拟议八周会议的前四周的显着部分。每个学生参与者将获得AMS，MAA，SIAM以及适当的阿萨的学生会员资格。学生将参与自己的研究项目，科学可视化课程，每周小组会议，特邀嘉宾讲座和活动，旨在最终就业安置，中期和期末口头报告，最终书面报告和每周社交活动。学生将建立一个网站，描述他们的项目和结果。 CaNSaM为本科生提供了参与积极的数值和计算研究的机会。参与者将获得洞察力，并发展识别和解决适合计算机模拟或解决方案的问题的技能。他们还将开发视觉，书面和口头交流数学和统计技能。在这个计划中开发的密切联系将激励参与者进一步学习并最终在数学或统计方面就业。该计划的参与者将成为代表性不足的少数民族的榜样，以帮助鼓励有数学天赋的学生追求数学和统计学的职业。该项目的学生将被鼓励在各自的社区中展示自己。
