The "Penn State- Göttingen International Summer Schools in Mathematics" will be held during Summer 2010 at Penn State University, during Summer 2011 at the Georg-August-Universität in Göttingen, Germany, and during Summer 2012 at Penn State University. The summer school will be scheduled for three weeks and will have a different thematic focus each year. The first two weeks will concentrate on educational activities, while during the third week an international research conference will be held on the featured topic. The target audience for the project is undergraduate and beginning graduate students in mathematics who are based in the U.S. and in Germany. The summer schools integrate education and research and offer international experiences in instruction and collaboration for students at an early stage of their mathematical career. During each summer school, faculty from both Penn State and the University of Göttingen will conduct lecture courses and supervise student work. Students will work in international teams to accomplish theoretical work, work in a computer lab, and carry out comprehensive projects. The program will also facilitate networking between students and researchers. Students will experience the research atmosphere in the field at the international research conference. Part of the conference program will be an information forum about graduate work and graduate school application procedures and selection criteria. The summer schools will contribute to attracting and retaining talented students to pursue graduate work and mathematical careers in academia, industry, and government, both in the United States and in Germany. They will provide international education and research experiences, promote the exchange of ideas and mutual understanding of different disciplinary cultures, and will enhance the ability of the participating students to engage in international collaborations in their future professional careers.

“宾夕法尼亚州立大学-哥廷根国际数学暑期学校”将于 2010 年夏季在宾夕法尼亚州立大学、2011 年夏季在德国哥廷根乔治奥古斯特大学以及 2012 年夏季在宾夕法尼亚州立大学举办。暑期学校将安排三周，每年都有不同的主题重点。前两周将集中于教育活动，而第三周将就该专题举行国际研究会议。该项目的目标受众是美国和德国的数学专业本科生和研究生。暑期学校将教育和研究融为一体，为处于数学职业早期阶段的学生提供国际教学和合作经验。在每个暑期学校期间，宾夕法尼亚州立大学和哥廷根大学的教师将开设讲座课程并监督学生的作业。学生将在国际团队中完成理论工作、在计算机实验室工作并开展综合项目。该计划还将促进学生和研究人员之间的联系。学生将在国际研究会议上体验该领域的研究氛围。会议计划的一部分将是关于研究生工作和研究生院申请程序和选择标准的信息论坛。暑期学校将有助于吸引和留住有才华的学生在美国和德国的学术界、工业界和政府从事研究生工作和数学职业。他们将提供国际化的教育和研究经验，促进不同学科文化的思想交流和相互理解，增强参赛学生在未来职业生涯中参与国际合作的能力。
