The Department of Statistics at North Carolina State University (NCSU) established a Computational Science Training for Undergraduates in the Mathematical Sciences (CSUMS) program funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to provide a rich applied computational statistics research experience to a diverse population of undergraduate students that will encourage them to continue their academic programs to the graduate level and will help them in making more informed decisions about their academic or nonacademic careers.
The CSUMS project, NCSU Computation for Undergraduates in Statistics Program (NCSU-CUSP), prepares students to engage in a significant research experience, and to be fluent in the languages of computing, mathematics, and statistics.
The NCSU-CUSP targets rising senior and exceptional rising junior statistics majors at NCSU who have demonstrated academic excellence. For an academic year NCSU-CUSP prepares students to be involved in a significant research experience, and to be fluent in the languages of computing, mathematics, and statistics.
