Abstract:This REU site seeks to increase the number of students choosing to pursue graduate studies, and ultimately careers, in computer science. The participants experience the most compelling aspects of graduate school in a ten week summer program. The program nurtures student interest in research by engaging students in the entire research process, beginning with a search of the literature, reading prior research, selecting the specific problems to be studied, working on those problems, and preparing the results for publication. The program develops research skills and improves written and oral communication skills in order to prepare students for success in graduate school.The research topics fall under the broadly scoped area of computer systems. Topics include computer networking, robot vision, computer music systems, and memory management, among others. Each project involves two or three students under the close direction of a faculty adviser whose expertise is in that area. In addition, students participate in a number of whole-group curricular and co-curricular activities. Among these activities are workshops on research methods, ethics, applying to graduate schools, careers in computer science, and technical topics.This program seeks to involve students from a variety of backgrounds and particularly those from schools with limited access to research opportunities. The project includes a comprehensive local and national recruiting-outreach program.

摘要：此REU网站旨在增加选择从事计算机科学领域的研究生学习，最终职业的学生人数。 参与者在一个为期十周的夏季课程中体验了研究生院最引人注目的方面。 该计划通过与学生参与整个研究过程，从搜索文献，阅读先前的研究，选择要研究的具体问题，解决这些问题并准备出版结果以促进学生对研究的兴趣。 该计划发展了研究技能，并提高了书面和口头沟通技巧，以便为学生在研究生院取得成功做好准备。研究主题属于计算机系统广泛范围的领域。 主题包括计算机网络，机器人视觉，计算机音乐系统和内存管理等。 每个项目都涉及两个或三个学生，在该领域的专业知识的教职顾问的近距离指导下。 此外，学生参加了许多全组课程和课外活动。 这些活动包括有关研究方法，道德，适用于研究生院，计算机科学职业和技术主题的研讨会。该计划旨在让来自各种背景的学生，尤其是来自有限获取研究机会的学校的学生。 该项目包括一项全面的本地和国家招聘计划。
