Undergraduate RIMMES (RESEARCH INITIATIONS IN MATHEMATICS, MATHEMATICS
EDUCATION AND STATISTICS) at Georgia State University
The Department of Mathematics and Statistics announces the fifth edition of the program
Undergraduate Research Initiations in Mathematics, Mathematics Education
and Statistics (for short, RIMMES), open to undergraduate students at
Georgia State University.
The program goal is to introduce undergraduate students to research in
mathematics, mathematics education and statistics. The program will teach
the students how to recognize interesting research problems, develop new
ideas, compare them to old ones, and present their findings in papers or
posters. The students will benefit from close interaction with faculty
members and their peers.
Duration of the program:
about five months starting with October 1, 2009 .
The following students are part of the RIMMES program:
-Nathan Krug: "Synchrony in excitatory networks" mentor Dr. Belykh
-David Clifton: "Algebraic connectivity and cooperative dynamics of complex networks" mentor Dr. Belykh
