Computational Science Invited Seminars
|
Sponsored by:
The Grad Minor in Computational Science
Coordinator:
Prof. Lyle N. Long
( lnl 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 plan to have speakers from areas such as engineering,
physics, chemistry, meteorology,
information science, computer science, business, bioinformatics,
neuroscience, applied math, etc.
After each seminar, there will be time for the audience
to have informal discussions with the speakers.
This will (eventually)
be a required couse for the future Graduate Minor in
Computational Science, and can be used now
for the
High Performance Computing Graduate Minor degree.

| 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 at the end of the semester. |
