Louisiana State University VIGRE Proposal EMSW21-VIGRE

路易斯安那州立大学数学系的VIGRE项目将从美国招募和培训数学科学家，以满足21世纪科学工作场所的需求。该计划将重点放在各个层次的研究和教育的整合上：本科生、研究生和博士后。VIGRE吗?研究人员?（rc），垂直整合的研究小组，将提供动态的研究环境，使教师，博士后，研究生和本科生共同努力，做出发现并产生可发表的成果。和路易斯安那州立大学合作？除了核心数学课程和RCs之外，该系还将通过夏季VIGRE项目、研究联系项目（在校园其他部门、行业或国家实验室实习）以及各种专业发展研讨会，为学生和博士后提供额外的专业发展机会。夏季VIGRE项目将包括由地区学院和大学组成的联盟的参与。学生将参加REU，并在教育和推广项目中进行互动。通过扎实的培训和指导，本系将为数学科学和教学队伍培养高素质的毕业生和博士后。它将开发RC模型，作为改造路易斯安那州立大学研究生数学教育的一种手段，并作为一种可移植的机制，在全国其他数学项目中做同样的事情。路易斯安那州立大学的毕业生，凭借他们的合作VIGRE经验，将能够将这些知识和专业知识转移到他们的各种专业职业道路上。VIGRE暑期项目和VIGRE相关的外展活动将吸引路易斯安那州K-12教师，从而对整个州的教育产生积极影响。最后，研究联系计划将通过建立本系与学术界、工业界和政府机构之间的联系，促进各层次的跨学科研究

The VIGRE Project in the Department of Mathematics at Louisiana State University (LSU) will recruit and train mathematical scientists from the US to meet the demands of the scientific workplace in the twenty-first century. The program will focus on the integration of research and education at all levels: undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral. VIGRE ?research crews? (RCs), vertically integrated research groups, will provide dynamic research environments in which faculty, postdocs, graduate students, and undergraduates work together to make discoveries and produce publishable results. In conjunction with LSU?s core mathematics curriculum and the RCs, the department will provide additional professional development opportunities for students and postdocs through a summer VIGRE program, through the Research Connections Program (internships in other departments on campus, in industry, or in national labs), and through various professional development workshops. The summer VIGRE program will involve participation from a consortium of regional colleges and universities. Students will participate in an REU and interact in education and outreach programs. With solid training and mentorship, the department will produce high quality graduates and postdocs for the mathematical science and teaching workforce. It will develop the RC model as a means of transforming graduate mathematics education at LSU and as a portable mechanism for doing the same in other mathematics programs around the country. LSU graduates, with their collaborative VIGRE experience, will be able to transfer this knowledge and expertise in their various professional career paths. The VIGRE summer program and VIGRE-related outreach activities will engage Louisiana K-12 teachers and thereby have a positive impact on education throughout the state. Finally, the Research Connections Program will foster interdisciplinary research at all levels by building contacts between the department and academic, industrial, and governmental agencies
