AERSP 590 (1 Credit)
Spring Semester, 2008
Days:
Location:
Coordinator: Prof. Michael Wenger ( Email: mjw19 at psu.edu )

This course will present the research of fourteen prominent computational science researchers. The goal will be to have each speaker discuss the latest research in their technical areas. We have speakers from areas such as engineering, physics, chemistry, software engineering, materials science, intelligent systems, computer science, statistics, and mathematics. Scroll down to see the complete list of speakers and topics. This is a required course for the Graduate Minor in Computational Science. (see also the Fall Course on Computational Science Tools).

Grading: Tentatively, grades will be determined as : 75% student-maintained journal of lectures and 25% class participation and questions. Each student will be required to keep a journal of the presentations, including speaker name, title, subject, talk outline, key points of lecture, references, questions you had, etc. The summary for each seminar must be at least one page of text (1 inch margins, 12 point font, single spacing), with any figures, tables, etc. on additional pages. These journals will be evaluated throughout the semester.

Due dates for writeups:

  • Seminars 1 - 3 and 5, Feb. 26
  • Seminars 6 - 9, Apr. 2
  • Seminars 10 - 14, May 4
