IRES: International Research in Industrial Projects for Students (Beijing)

加州大学洛杉矶分校纯数学与应用数学研究所（IPAM）将于2007年开始为本科生提供暑期工业项目研究(RIPS)-北京项目。目标是将国际研究经验与已建立和成功的RIPS格式相结合。学生不仅可以更好地了解数学的应用和工业研究的需求，还可以从国际研究经验中受益。微软亚洲研究院（MSRA）将在微软北京研究院资助五个项目，每个项目都涉及前沿数学。10名美国学生和10名中国学生将分成四人一组，两国各派两名成员。每个团队将有一名教师导师（由IPAM招募）和一名行业导师（代表MSRA研究小组）。学生们将进行为期8周的研究，最终提交一份最终报告，并向研究小组进行口头报告。rip -北京项目每年将增加10名美国顶尖学生和10名中国顶尖学生，他们将作为国际团队的一部分，在世界上最令人兴奋的工业研究中心之一工作，并亲身体验数学解决重要现实问题的力量。我们希望大多数美国学生会觉得这个研究经历很有吸引力和吸引力，并决定继续读研究生，并利用他们在亚洲环境中的能力从事职业。每年参加的美国教师导师将获得指导团队和在国际环境中工作的技能。IPAM和MSRA在共同运营该项目方面的合作也将为进一步的联合活动奠定基础。

The UCLA Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM) will offer Research in Industrial Projects (RIPS)- Beijing, a summer program for undergraduates, starting in 2007. The goal is to integrate an international research experience with the established and successful RIPS format. The students will gain not only a better appreciation for the applications of math and the demands of industrial research, but will also benefit from an international research experience.Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA) will sponsor five projects, each involving cutting-edge mathematics, at Microsoft's Beijing facility. Ten U.S. students and 10 Chinese students will work on teams of four, with two members from each country. Each team will have a faculty mentor (recruited by IPAM) and an industry mentor (representing the MSRA research group). The students will engage in research for 8 weeks and ultimately present a final report as well as give an oral presentation to the research group. The RIPS-Beijing program will add to the pipeline each year 10 top US students and 10 top Chinese students who will have experienced working at one of the world's most exciting industrial research centers as part of an international team, and experiencing first-hand the power of mathematics to solve important real-world problems. We expect that most of the U.S. students will find this research experience attractive and compelling, and will decide to go on to graduate school and to careers utilizing their capability to work in an Asian setting. The faculty mentors from the U.S. who participate each year will acquire skills in guiding a team and in working in an international setting. The cooperation between IPAM and MSRA in jointly running this program will lay the groundwork for further joint activities as well.
