William & 玛丽 EXTREEMS-QED Program
Expeditions in Training, Research, and Education for Mathematics and Statistics through Quantitative Explorations of Data (EXTREEMS-QED) program is an educational program supported by National Science Foundation to support efforts to educate the next generation of mathematics and statistics undergraduate students to confront new challenges in computational and data-enabled science and engineering (CDS&E). EXTREEMS-QED projects will enhance the knowledge and skills of mathematics majors through training that incorporates computational tools for analysis of large data sets and for modeling and simulation of complex systems.
Th
A CDS&E Colloquium Series will be a venue for bringing and exposing the William & 玛丽 academic community to cutting-edge research by speakers from other institutes or industry to report the latest CDS&E advancements. A seminar course will be offered annually in the spring semester for interested undergraduate students, and CDS&E faculty speakers will give introductory descriptions of their research problems in order to communicate with a broader audience of faculty and students.
The training/education/research program will be conducted in a partnership with several Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) in Southeast Virginia: Virginia State University, Hampton University and Norfolk State University. Some CDS&E courses offered at William & 玛丽 will be web-broadcasted to these universities as online courses for their faculty and students, and selected students and faculty members from the three HBCU institutes will participate in the William & 玛丽 summer CDS&E research program.
