Abstract

Business, industry, and government provide fertile opportunities for applications of mathematical sciences and for employment of the community of highly trained computer scientists. Heretofore, collaborations between science academia and industry have been focused on the cooperations between the research faculty members and industry scientists. The objective of this paper is to extend this industry-academia interface by designing an educational program which educates students in computer science, mathematics, and biology research and their corresponding applications to industry. These collaborations fortify the creation of a Biomedical Health Science (BHS) Career Program that is designed to provide students a working experience in the biomedical career world.
