Wabash Summer Institute in Mathematics

WSIM是由印第安纳州沃巴什学院主办的为期八周的研究体验。12名本科生将花一个夏天沉浸在交换环理论或应用数学中。参与者将被介绍到这两个领域，并组成团队调查其中一个领域的开放问题。WSIM参与者将参加每周一次的研讨会，调查研究伦理和更广泛定义的伦理。此外，参与者将每周做一次报告，并参加7月底的印第安纳大学本科数学会议，在那里他们将展示他们的研究成果。参与者还将参加由该地区研究机构的研究生和研究生教授每周举行的讲座。WSIM的主管是Mike Axtell，他将与沃巴什学院的JD Phillips和Chad Westphal一起担任参与者的研究导师。2008年夏天，米利金大学的乔·斯蒂克尔斯将接替JD·菲利普斯的位置。

WSIM is an eight-week research experience hosted by Wabash College in Indiana. Twelve undergraduates will spend a summer immersed in either Commutative Ring Theory or Applied Mathematics. Participants will be introduced to both of these areas and will form teams that investigate an open problem in one of these areas. WSIM participants will take part in weekly seminars investigating the ethics of research and ethics more broadly defined. In addition, participants will give weekly presentations and attend the Indiana Undergraduate Mathematics Conference in late July where they will present the results of their research. Participants will also attend weekly talks given by both graduate students and graduate professors from research institutions in the area. The director of WSIM is Mike Axtell who along with JD Phillips and Chad Westphal, both of Wabash College, will serve as research mentors to the participants. In the summer of 2008, Joe Stickles of Millikin University will take JD Phillips' place.
