CSUMS: Research and Education in Computational Mathematics for Undergraduates in the Mathematical Sciences at NJIT

数学科学系（DMS）在新泽西理工学院（NJIT）正在设计一个本科CSUMS培训计划，将（1）建立和加强现有的课程相结合的数学和科学计算和（2）建立显着的小组研究参与数学科学专业的本科生。 具体来说，NJIT计划将通过创建随机计算，反问题计算和计算数学金融的新课程，使本科数学科学学生接触科学计算的进步。 NJIT CSUMS计划还将使学生沉浸在涉及最先进的计算算法和方法（包括并行计算）的重大小组研究项目中。 NJIT CSUMS计划内的研究项目涉及数学科学的许多不同领域，包括数学和科学计算在流体流动，光纤通信，生态学，曲线绘制算法和金融研究中的应用。 该计划利用了DMS教师和附近工业科学家的广泛兴趣。 NJIT CSUMS计划的一个重要组成部分是拟议活动的小组重点，包括由多名教师监督的团队项目，每周小组会议和科学计算研讨会。 所取得的科学成果将通过出版物和在各种会议上介绍加以传播。 NJIT CSUMS学生将由教师和研究生密切指导，并将发展领导技能，成为未来CSUMS几代人的导师。 凭借在数学建模和科学计算方面的专业知识，CSUMS学生将从该计划中脱颖而出，具有独特的跨学科技能，并有望成为工业和国家研究生课程中数学科学的未来领导者。 CSUMS的好处将超越参与者本身。 将开发新的数学和计算相结合的课程，这将使所有NJIT学生受益。 课程扩展将为不同的NJIT学生提供机会，以深入了解数学建模和科学计算，这将提高他们在科学和技术方面的职业生涯。

The Department of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) is designing an undergraduate CSUMS training program that will (1) build on and enhance the existing curriculum combining mathematics and scientific computation and (2) establish significant group research involvement for undergraduates majoring in mathematical sciences. Specifically, the NJIT program will expose undergraduate mathematical science students to advances in scientific computing by creating new courses in stochastic computation, computing for inverse problems, and computational mathematical finance. The NJIT CSUMS program will also immerse students in significant group research projects involving state-of-the-art computational algorithms and methodologies, including parallel computing. Research projects within the NJIT CSUMS program canvass many different areas in the mathematical sciences, including the application of mathematics and scientific computing to the study of fluid flow, optical fiber communications, ecology, algorithms for curve drawing, and finance. The program takes advantage of the wide range of interests of the DMS faculty and nearby industrial scientists. An important component of the NJIT CSUMS program is the group focus of the proposed activities, including team projects supervised by multiple faculty, weekly group meetings, and workshops in scientific computation. The scientific results obtained will be disseminated through publication and presentation at various conferences. NJIT CSUMS students will be mentored closely by faculty and graduate students and will develop the leadership skills to become mentors of future CSUMS generations themselves. With expertise in mathematical modeling and scientific computation, CSUMS students will emerge from this program with unique interdisciplinary skills and are expected to become the future leaders in the mathematical sciences both in industry and in the nation's graduate programs. The benefits of CSUMS will be felt beyond the participants themselves. New courses integrating mathematics and computation will be developed which will benefit all NJIT students. The curriculum extensions will offer the diverse NJIT student body opportunities to gain insight into mathematical modeling and scientific computing that will enhance their careers in science and technology.
