Undergraduate Mentoring Program

The year-long Computational Science Training for Undergraduates in the Mathematical Sciences (CSUMS) mentoring program begins in summer term with an intense 7-week bootcamp program, where students develop mathematical, statistical, and computational expertise in a focused setting preparatory to doing research during the academic year and following spring term. The research theme of the mentoring program is functional data analysis, optimization, dynamical systems, and statistical genetics. Application areas include biological threat identification, bioinformatics, shockwaves, cosmology, and human performance.
