On Saturday, Sept. 29, MSUM hosted a day of STEM Workshops organized by the MSUM Noyce Program. This and future workshops are intended to better prepare future math and science teachers in the use of technology and new instructional methods. Preservice science and mathematics education majors from MSUM and Concordia along with professors from Concordia, NDSU, and MSUM were treated […]
Friday, Sept. 28 | 3-3:50 p.m. | Hagen Hall 325 Investigations of Noise Transients in the Advanced LIGO Calibration Model LIGO searches for gravitational waves in calibrated data using time-dependent calibration parameters. In this project, we looked for significant fluctuations in these parameters during the second observing run. Large fluctuations in these parameters may indicate a significant error in the Advanced […]
Friday, Sept. 14 | 3-4 p.m. | Hagen Hall 325 Steve Lindaas: Making Connections: micro-controllers and interdisciplinary projects. How do you connect computers to external sensors? How do you connect students to interdisciplinary projects? We will be showcasing the use of Arduino micro-controllers in different projects. Many of these projects are interdisciplinary involving students from different majors and/or requiring the use of a […]
