Join the Research in Industrial Projects for Students (RIPS) this 2022 to work in teams on real-world research projects proposed by sponsors from the industry or the public sector.

Each student team, with support from their academic mentor and industry mentor, will research the problem and present the results, both orally and in writing, at the end of the program.

RIPS-LA students will live in residence halls on the UCLA campus and will work at IPAM. They expect to have nine projects. The projects vary, but all involve some math, statistics, data, as well as computing.
