Mathematics scholars from the School of Mathematics and Computer Science at Ningxia University are visiting Scientific Computing for collaborative research and enhancement of mathematical models. Liyu Chen, Ting Li, Li Wang, and Qimin Zhang, all mathematicians, are in Tallahassee until February and are working with professors across campus to enhance research models.
Max Gunzburger, a world-renowned computational scientist and mathematician will address the graduates during Florida State University’s fall commencement ceremonies this week.
After receiving his computational science Ph.D., Geoff Womeldorff realized he wanted somehow to help mentor other students through the degree process. One of his first opportunities was as a postdoc, by talking to students in his group about the ins and outs of graduate school, selecting a professor, choosing a research area, and day to day academia.
Scientific Computing assistant professor Chen Huang’s research entitled, “Precise Design of Phosphorescent Molecular Butterflies with Tunable Photoinduced Structural Change and Dual Emission,” is featured on the cover of the international edition of the journal, Angewandte Chemie.
Scientific Computing Research Associate John Burkardt created a new course for the summer, entitled Scientific Communication. The course is designed to help students communicate their research in any medium, in any venue.
When did you begin to think about introducing a communication series for the students?
"The motivation for this class came from one of the graduate students, who said he needed a two-credit seminar course to complete his requirements. Then a friend of his said he would take the class, but suggested turning it into a writing class, so he would be motivated to finish a paper. With two students who seemed highly motivated to get something done over the summer, I agreed to set something up."
