A model for guiding undergraduates to success in computational science

Published: 14 October 2007 Publication History

Abstract

This paper presents a model for guiding undergraduates to success in computational science. A set of integrated, interdisciplinary training and research activities is outlined for use as a vehicle to increase and produce graduates with research experiences in computational and mathematical sciences. The model is responsive to the development of new interdisciplinary curricula in computational biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics.
