ProCSI Engineering Summer Camp 2013

Promoting the Computational Science Initiative (ProCSI)

ProCSI (pronounced “proxy”) is an initiative, undertaken by a group of faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, whose mission is to expose minority 10th and 11th grade students to Computational Science. Computational Science, a combination of Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, and, in our case, Mechanical Engineering, aims to use computer simulation to understand and gain insights into real world phenomena.
