DTS 2290 - Capstone Research


Credits: 3

PIC Math (Preparation for Industrial Careers in Mathematics) is a program sponsored by the Mathematical Association of America (MAA), the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), and the National Science Foundation (NSF). The goal of this capstone project is to provide students with experience in researching and solving industrial problems. Students work in groups and research problems given by local businesses, industry, and government (BIG). This course mimics an internship - students learn to interact in a business setting, manage deadlines, produce technical documents, and think critically to find solutions. By the end of the course, each group produces a solution to their problem and completes a written, oral (video), and poster/PowerPoint summary of their work.
