For the past 20+ years, we have held a Research
Experiences for Undergraduates Program at William and Mary, funded by the
National Science Foundation. This has attracted top quality students from a
strong applicant pool around the US (and occasional foreign
students). The goal is that they understand and do serious research. After a
brief overview of the program, a survey of some representative results from the
program will be given. These involve matrices, but often in conjunction with
other areas. |
