Temple University Summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)

• Temple University Summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)
  
  The mathematics department of Temple University is planning a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) for Summer 2004. The two featured topics are Algebraic Representation Theory and The Mathematics of Materials Science.
  
  A program description and application instructions can be found at the web site: http://www.math.temple.edu/reu
  
  The application deadline is March 15, 2004.
  
  The fundamental mathematical prerequisite is undergraduate linear algebra. However, highly capable students who have not yet taken a formal linear algebra course (but who have had some exposure to matrix arithmetic) will certainly be considered.
  
  A clearly stated aim of the National Science Foundation's REU effort is to broaden the pool of talented undergraduates choosing scientific careers. We strongly encourage applications from members of groups currently underrepresented in the mathematical sciences.
