[2]: The Graduate-Level Research in Industrial Projects (G-RIPS) Program
provides an opportunity for high-achieving graduate-level students to
work in
teams on a real-world research project proposed by a sponsor from
industry or
the public sector. Each G-RIPS team is comprised of four international
students
(two from the US and two from European universities), an academic
mentor, and an
industrial sponsor. The research problem is always a real problem of
serious
interest to the sponsor and that offers a stimulating challenge to
students.

Most of these projects involve both analytic and computational work. The
students, with direction from their academic mentor and industrial
sponsor, will
learn about the problem, master the latest analytical and computational
approaches and techniques to solve it. At the end of the program, the
teams will
present the results of their work and prepare a final report. English is
the
only language required for participation.
