  1. W38: CPUG: Computational Physics UG Degree Program at OregonSU Rubin Landau, Director Oregon State University www.physics.orst.edu/~rubin www.physics.orst.edu/CPUG D McIntyre, H Jansen, A Stetz, OSU M Paez, Antioquia, Colombia, J Foertsch, LEAD DCOMP 04, Montreal

  2. What`s This? • 4 year BS degree • S (Physics + Math +CS) = Computational Science (CSE) • Research Rich for UG (PhD, MS projects) • Built on 3  CSE courses + 1 new + others • Incorporate tutorials & Applets: NASCE (MRA-OSU) • WWW/CML for CSE courses; eg  BS in Physics • Publish Instructional Materials; Princeton & Wiley : paper + CD • Accessible (XML, MathML, SVG);

  3. Why Do This? • Need: students know both science + HPC • Black box: not enough • Need: Bridge courses • adjusted level • content

  4. Why: Physics Ed Needs Change

  5. Intellectual Content of CP (CSE) Five General Areas:             1. Solution Realistic Physics             2. Applied Math & Comp Methods             3. Simulation & Modeling             4. High Performance Computing             5. Computation & Visualization Tools

  6. By Courses

  7. Conclusions: “Beginnings are hard”C. P. (d 2002) • CPUG @ OSU • common balance, tools • Description = 2 Books (05, 06) • not prescription • Pioneers: cooperative spirit • CSE/CP courses: • need glue, bridge, books • 1 grad 03, 3 grads 04 • 2 new CP faculty (04)
