At PLU, you can test your math skills in the classroom, but you can also showcase your problem-solving prowess outside the classroom! This year, a three-person PLU student team finished in the top five of the Interdisciplinary Contest in Modeling , an international contest where…
intellectually intense, the competition is also physically grueling; students usually sleep no more than three hours a night. Despite frequent team runs to Bigfoot Java, Duffy, a third-year computer science major, got sleep paralysis twice in 24 hours. Yet the stress and the fun go hand in hand. Madeline, a second-year physics major, particularly loved waiting for the problems to open and for the timer to go off. “And then it’s just violent brainstorming,” she added. “Every single room has eight whiteboards

Mathematics is an exciting and intellectually stimulating field whose frontiers are rapidly expanding.
, including statistics, geometry and mathematics applied to computation or to science. Students who choose a B.S. degree in mathematics often couple it with a minor or second major in such related fields as computer science, physics, computer engineering and actuarial science. Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics This degree is frequently selected by students who wish to obtain both a mathematics major and a second major in a liberal arts subject. Recent mathematics graduates have taken a second major in such

evening and outdoors. The second idea was linked to the completion of the new Keck Observatory on campus. Star charts are passed out at the concert and, with the help of physics professors Dr. Steve Starkovich and Dana Rush, the telescope is available for the public to stargaze after select performances. Judy Carr insisted that the concerts were a community service and should be free to the public. To pay the musicians and offer other accommodations, JUTS would need sponsorship and cooperation from a

in lithium ion batteries. We are investigating dicarboximide-functionalized oxanorbornyl homopolymers as potential solid polymer electrolytes. To that end, we have synthesized dicarboximide-functionalized oxanorbornyl polymers with varying ethylene oxide (EO)n side chains with 2, 3, and 4 EO units polymers via a ring opening metathesis reaction under living conditions using a Grubbs third generation catalyst. The polymers were characterized with 1H and 13C NMR as well as GPC. The molecular

Aaron Coyner, Senior Capstone Seminar The use of solid polymers in lithium ion batteries has the potential to provide a safer, more reliable alternative to liquid electrolytes.
- Welcome1:10 pm - The Synthesis of a Solid Polymer Electrolyte Aaron Coyner, Senior Capstone Seminar The use of solid polymers in lithium ion batteries has the potential to provide a safer, more reliable alternative to liquid electrolytes. The synthesis of a solid polymer electrolyte based off of an oxanorbornene maleimide repeat unit with an oligomeric ethylene oxide unit will be presented. Our research group has already experimented with ethylene oxide unit lengths of n=2, 3, and 4. This research

The Dynamic Compression Summer School has been established to provide an overview of dynamic compression science appropriate for upper-level undergraduates and first-year graduate students. The four and a half days of activities will introduce students to the scientific fundamentals, contemporary research activities including informal discussions,…
? Dynamic compression experiments subject materials to unique thermodynamic conditions – very large compressions, high temperatures, and large deformations – on short time scales resulting in a rich array of physical and chemical changes. Understanding the material response at these extreme conditions is of central importance to fundamental science and spans the disciplines of Physics, Chemistry, Materials Sciences, Geo/Planetary Sciences, and Solid Mechanics. Research activities related to the dynamic
