This $323,992 National Science Foundation project grant will support an Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site in Extremal Graph Theory and Dynamical Systems at Rochester Institute of Technology from February 2023 through January 2026. Under this award, RIT will engage 30 undergraduate students over three summers in research experiences in areas of graph theory, linear algebra, and dynamical systems. Students will work directly with RIT faculty on applied projects modeling cardiac arrhythmia and complex networks, as well as theoretical projects in structural graph theory and linear algebra. In addition to conducting research, students will participate in workshops on ethics in science and networking events with other mathematicians. RIT will disseminate results through publications, conferences, and presentations at students' home institutions. This project aims to advance discrete and applied mathematics while broadening participation in STEM through recruitment of women, underrepresented minorities, and students from institutions lacking research opportunities. The funding falls under the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program.
