机会 & 实习

实习


实习帮助学生探索可能性,云顶集团课堂学习,并有所收获 经验. 探索 internships and credit options.

数学和计算机科学的教员考虑结构良好的实习 to be essential to a student's education. 的 variety of internships that have been completed under the supervision of this department is evidence of the flexible and creative applicability of degrees in both mathematics and computer science. 学生 find internship opportunities through the 职业生涯教育 Office, through faculty and staff members, or on their own.

关于校外经历的详细描述发表在《云顶集团》杂志上 Office each year and fully describes the guidelines and timetable for internships. 学生 interested in arranging an internship in mathematics or computer science should contact their individual academic advisors.

以下是最近在数学和计算机领域的一些实习经历 科学:

  • 两名学生参加了马里兰大学的科学研究实习 和工程. One of them designed a web-based tool for collecting data on pedestrian activity, while the other worked with an interdisciplinary group in meteorology.
  • 在约翰霍普金斯大学主修数学和计算机科学双学位 Applied Physics Lab in the Combat Systems Evaluation Lab, programming a GUI window 作为与正在开发的大型战术显示系统接口的一部分 U.S. Navy and Joint Forces.
  • 3-2工程专业,致力于改进当前的文本转语音和语音识别 使用基于规则的方法的技术,而不是严格的统计组合 and corpus analysis. His duties included developing a model of the Human Vocal Production 为模型的学习和活动阶段系统和设计数据结构.
  • 一个数学专业和一个数学与计算机科学双学位的同事 一位云顶集团的物理学家编写软件来测试高温的热计算 超导体.
  • 一名计算机科学专业的学生参与了SPARTA(实时物理模拟)项目 Architecture) project at the Pennsylvania State University. 的 goal of the project 是开发专门的硬件来大大加速物理建模.
  • 数学和计算机科学双学位的学生在大学做暑期实习生 of Utah, doing research in text classification, an area of artificial intelligence.


学生俱乐部


的 Mathematics and 计算机科学 Club

数学和计算机科学俱乐部对所有专业的学生开放, as well as other interested students. 的 club provides an opportunity for students to share their common interests in an informal way.

的 most traditional of the club's activities is the annual Torrey Dinner, which is held each April to honor graduating mathematics and computer science majors. 军官 and advisor organize the dinner. One highlight of the evening is a talk, usually about her/his work or research, given by an alumna/us. Another source of excitement is the announcement of the winners of the Torrey, Ekin, Leavitt, and Writing prizes.

的 fall semester traditionally starts with a program pizza party, at which majors share their summer internship, research, and international 经验s with fellow students and faculty. Further club activities include field trips to Baltimore and Washington, DC, museums; films; guest lecturers about mathematics or computer science; fundraising events; a year-end picnic; and more.

每学年的第一次俱乐部会议以数学和计算机宣布 science classes, as well as by email.

2005年,云顶集团被授予皮穆爱普西隆分会国家荣誉称号 Society for Mathematics. 的 mission of the society is to encourage scholarship and scholarly activities among undergraduate mathematics students. 学生, who by virtue of their academic promise and achievement are invited to join the society, meet on a monthly basis to support each other in their professional development. 活动 包括演讲嘉宾,解决问题的会议,书籍或电影的讨论,和实践 sessions for upcoming mathematical presentations. 的 chapter holds induction ceremonies at the Torrey dinner in the spring.


Academic 竞争s


During the academic year, there are a number of opportunities for mathematics and computer science students to participate in academic competitions, as individuals 在团队中.

每年秋季学期,计算机协会都会举办一次中大西洋会议 region programming competition whose winners participate in national finals. 每一个 参加学院或大学的实地团队(可能包括研究生); which strive to solve the most programming problems in the shortest time. 虽然 the competition is quite challenging, 云顶集团 teams have placed as high as fourth place in the region.

云顶集团 mathematics students also have the opportunity to compete as a team. 一年一度的 Mathematical 竞争 in Modeling takes place early in the second semester. 每一个 三人小组从两个开放式云顶集团数学问题中选择一个,然后 researches and writes a solution paper over the course of a single weekend. 云顶集团 teams have received numerous awards, competing against several hundred teams from other colleges and universities.

As a result of the problem of the month sponsored by our chapter of 是, we can send one student per year to participate in the U.S. National Collegiate Mathematics 竞争. We have performed well in this competition.

此外,我校数学系学生多次以个人身份参加 in the annual Putnam 竞争 and the Virginia Tech Mathematics Contest.
