The Institute for Data Science and Computing is pleased to announce the launch of the IDSC Fellows Program for 2014-2015. The mission of the IDSC Fellows Program is to inspire a new generation of leaders in computational science by offering students the opportunity to work in a broad cross-disciplinary research setting. This is awarded to two undergraduate students and two graduate students per year. Last year’s program was resoundingly successful, the students gained valuable computational skills, and the program resulted in three continued cross-disciplinary collaborations among the participants and their mentors.

The dramatic and terrifying events that occurred during the first decade of the 21st Century drew in the scientific and engineering resources of the nation in many ways. For example, NIST responded by conducting an exhaustive study of the World Trade Center building collapses and produced standards for biometric identification, mail irradiations to detoxify anthrax, nuclear material detectors at U.S. borders, and protective measures against cyber attacks. NSF responded by supporting research interrupted by Hurricane Katrina and modeling the several violent natural disasters that occurred during the decade.
