Das, Kumer
PRIMUS, v23 n9 p829-836 2013
As an extension to various sponsored summer undergraduate research programs, academic year research for undergraduate students is becoming popular. Mathematics faculty around the country are getting involved with this type of research and administrators are encouraging this effort. Since 2007, we have been conducting academic year research at Lamar University. This study describes our academic year research program and some of its benefits.
