REU Site: Mathematics Research for Undergraduates at James Madison University

詹姆斯·麦迪逊大学(JMU)将在2003-2005年的夏季为每年8名本科生举办一个为期8周的本科生研究体验(REU)项目。该项目的主要目标是为学生参与者提供真实的数学研究体验。计划的组成部分包括：(1)与另一名学生一起与教师一起研究项目；(2)撰写包含项目结果的研究论文；(3)参加共同研讨会；(4)在整个计划中向其他研究小组展示结果；(4)与JMU生物、化学和材料科学REU项目的学生一起参加后续会议；(5)有机会参观DC地区的工业研究设施；(6)有机会参加生物、化学和材料科学的研讨会；(7)与生物、化学和材料科学本科生一起参加社会活动；(8)由JMU以外的适当数学家审查结果；(9)在接下来的学年中在专业会议上展示结果；以及(10)在项目结束后继续与导师联系。

James Madison University (JMU) will host an eight-week Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program for eight undergraduates per year during the summers of 2003-2005. The primary goal of theprogram is to provide its student participants with an authentic mathematical research experience. The components of program include: (1) Working with another student on a research project with a facultymentor; (2) Writing a research paper containing project results; (3) Participating in a common seminar; (4) Presenting results to the other research groups throughout the program; (4) Participating in a postersession with students in the REU programs at JMU in Biology, Chemistry, and Materials Science; (5) The opportunity to visit industrial research facilities in the DC area; (6) The opportunity to attend the seminars in Biology, Chemistry, and Materials Science; (7) Participating in social activities with undergraduate research students in Biology, Chemistry, and Materials Science; (8) Having results reviewed by appropriate mathematicians outside of JMU; (9) Presenting results at professional meetings during the followingacademic year; and (10) Continued contact with the mentors after the end of the project.
