EBSCO Open Dissertations

EBSCO Open Dissertations makes electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) more accessible to researchers worldwide. The free portal is designed to benefit universities and their students and make ETDs more discoverable. 

Increasing Discovery & Usage of ETD Research

EBSCO Open Dissertations is a collaboration between EBSCO and BiblioLabs to increase traffic and discoverability of ETD research. You can join the movement and add your theses and dissertations to the database, making them freely available to researchers everywhere while increasing traffic to your institutional repository. 

EBSCO Open Dissertations extends the work started in 2014, when EBSCO and the H.W. Wilson Foundation created American Doctoral Dissertations which contained indexing from the H.W. Wilson print publication, Doctoral Dissertations Accepted by American Universities, 1933-1955. In 2015, the H.W. Wilson Foundation agreed to support the expansion of the scope of the American Doctoral Dissertations database to include records for dissertations and theses from 1955 to the present.

How Does EBSCO Open Dissertations Work?

Your ETD metadata is harvested via OAI and integrated into EBSCO’s platform, where pointers send traffic to your IR.

EBSCO integrates this data into their current subscriber environments and makes the data available on the open web via opendissertations.org .

• Areas & Faculty
• Admission Requirements
• Medical School Track
• NRT FUTURE Program

Advances in computational speed and data availability, and the development of novel data analysis methods, have birthed a new field: data science. This new field requires a new type of researcher and actor: the rigorously trained, cross-disciplinary, and ethically responsible data scientist. Launched in Fall 2017, the pioneering CDS PhD Data Science program seeks to produce such researchers who are fluent in the emerging field of data science, and to develop a native environment for their education and training. The CDS PhD Data Science program has rapidly received widespread recognition and is considered among the top and most selective data science doctoral programs in the world. It has recently been recognized by the NSF through an NRT training grant.

The CDS PhD program model rigorously trains data scientists of the future who (1) develop methodology and harness statistical tools to find answers to questions that transcend the boundaries of traditional academic disciplines; (2) clearly communicate to extract crisp questions from big, heterogeneous, uncertain data; (3) effectively translate fundamental research insights into data science practice in the sciences, medicine, industry, and government; and (4) are aware of the ethical implications of their work.

Our programmatic mission is to nurture this new generation of data scientists, by designing and building a data science environment where methodological innovations are developed and translated successfully to domain applications, both scientific and social. Our vision is that combining fundamental research on the principles of data science with translational projects involving domain experts creates a virtuous cycle: Advances in data science methodology transform the process of discovery in the sciences, and enable effective data-driven governance in the public sector. At the same time, the demands of real-world translational projects will catalyze the creation of new data science methodologies. An essential ingredient of such methodologies is that they embed ethics and responsibility by design.

These objectives will be achieved by a combination of an innovative core curriculum, a novel data assistantship mechanism that provides training of skills transfer through rotations and internships, and communication and entrepreneurship modules. Students will be exposed to a wider range of fields than in more standard PhD programs while working with our interdisciplinary faculty. In particular, we are proud to offer a medical track for students eager to explore data science as applied to healthcare or to develop novel theoretical models stemming from medical questions.

Holistic optimization of data center cooling systems and airflow management public deposited, downloadable content.

Data centers are often overcooled to address the reliability concerns, which may lead to a lower cooling efficiency. Model-based optimization in a holistic view can be utilized to improve the cooling efficiency while meeting the stringent thermal requirements of data centers, which usually involve non-uniform thermal environment. The co-simulation of building energy simulation (BES) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is promising to fulfill the needs. However, the existing BES-CFD co-simulation methods are not good enough for practical use in the real world because of either huge computational costs with BES-CFD coupled models or accuracy issues with BES-ROM-CFD coupled models that integrate reduced order models (ROMs). This dissertation therefore intends to improve the simulation methods from the following aspects to allow a computationally-practical and sufficiently accurate holistic optimization of cooling systems and airflow management towards energy efficient data centers with reliable operation.

First, as CFD is the bottleneck of the BES-CFD co-simulation speed, this dissertation develops an improved Fast Fluid Dynamics (FFD) model for fast and accurate simulation of data center airflow and thermal environment. FFD, which is a simplified CFD method, has been applied for fast airflow simulation. However, few research applied FFD for optimal design and operation of data center thermal management. This dissertation improves the FFD model for data centers and conducts a comprehensive evaluation and demonstration. The FFD model is improved by 1) proposing new algorithms to solve equations for a better general quantity conservation than conventional FFD; and 2) adding new features and boundary conditions for data centers. The validation with a real data center shows that the new FFD model achieves a similar level of accuracy as CFD when compared to the experimental measurements, and is 61 times faster than CFD for the studied case.

Then, to improve the existing BES-CFD co-simulation methods, this dissertation proposes a new online BES-ROM-CFD co-simulation method. Among existing models, BES-CFD is accurate but time consuming, and BES-ROM-CFD is fast but may have accuracy issues. The proposed online BES-ROM-CFD method combines the advantages of both existing models, in which the ROM allows online learning and automatic error control. This methodology is realized by implementing a Modelica-ISAT-FFD model, which will be officially released in Modelica Buildings library to allow a broader range of applications. The new model is then comprehensively evaluated with a mixed convection case. The results show that the new model can generally control the prediction error within user-defined tolerances compared to an existing Modelica-FFD model that was validated by previous research. An annual simulation shows that the new model saves up to 95.7% of computing time against the existing Modelica-FFD model. A space heating case is also studied to demonstrate the capability of the new model to handle scenarios with feedback loop controls.

To further improve the online BES-ROM-CFD method, this dissertation proposes an adaptive online BES-ROM-CFD method, in which adaptive coupling frequencies are used to reduce the number of ROM-CFD calls during the co-simulation. It is further powered by distributed computing, which allows that BES-ROM runs on a CPU and CFD runs on a GPU in parallel during the co-simulation. Based on the new methods, an adaptive Modelica-ISAT-FFD model is developed, which is verified against an existing Modelica-FFD model with a real middle-size data center. A holistic optimization platform is proposed based on the new model, which is then evaluated and demonstrated with optimization studies. It is found that a holistic optimization with annual co-simulations for a middle size data center in the real world can be finished within a day, which is estimated to take as much as many years if using the existing Modelica-FFD model. The results also show that the holistic optimization saves the annual energy consumption by up to 48.1% while meeting the data center thermal requirements.

In addition to the off-operation model-based optimization, this dissertation further proposes a novel machine learning assisted expert system (MLES) method towards a real-time optimal control for the studied data center cooling system. Model predictive control (MPC) has been widely studied for optimal control. Though it can achieve a good performance theoretically, formulating a precise and real-time model is often not easy especially for complex systems, such as data center cooling systems involving stratified airflow. To address this problem, this dissertation proposes a novel robust and easy-to-implement model-free MLES optimal control method. First, the optimization problem is simplified to allow formulating an expert system based on expert knowledge. Then, a machine learning model trained by more than a thousand of CFD simulations is used to assist the expert system for hot spots control towards reliable operation. A MPC is also implemented as benchmark. The case studies show that the MLES could achieve a similar performance as a well-designed ideal MPC, and is much faster than MPC. An annual simulation shows that with the MLES, the energy consumption is saved by up to 64.6% and meanwhile hot spots are generally well controlled.

To conclude, this dissertation concentrates on improving the data center cooling efficiency while maintaining reliable operation in a holistic view. The outcomes include 1) an open source model for fast simulation of data center thermal environment, 2) an open source model for fast and accurate co-simulation of cooling systems and airflow management, 3) a computationally-practical and sufficiently accurate optimization platform for holistic optimization of cooling systems and airflow management, 4) a novel robust and easy-to-implement optimal control method that simultaneously considers cooling efficiency and reliable operation. The proposed models and methodologies may not be limited in data center applications, which can be expanded for studying other cooling systems involving non-uniform thermal environment in future research.

Evolving high-performance computing data centers with kubernetes, performance analysis, and dynamic workload placement based on machine learning scheduling.

1. Introduction

2. technology overview, 2.1. virtualization, 2.2. containerization technology.

• Efficient resource usage: Containers share the host system’s kernel, eliminating the need for a complete operating system for each instance. This results in lower overhead than virtual machines (VMs), each requiring their own OS, leading to more efficient CPU and memory use. The container’s average performance is generally better than that of the VM and is comparable to that of the physical machine in terms of many features [ 4 ].
• Faster startup time: Containers can start almost instantly because they do not require booting an entire operating system. In contrast, VMs take significantly longer to start as they need to initialize a whole OS, and the startup time difference from server power-on can be up to 50% [ 23 ]. This speed advantage makes containers ideal for applications that require quick scaling and deployment.
• Density: Due to their lightweight nature, a single host can run many more containers than VMs. For certain types of workloads, an application container’s startup time is 16× lower than that of a VM, and its memory footprint is 60× lower than that of a VM [ 24 ]. This higher density allows for better utilization of hardware resources, enabling more applications to run on the same infrastructure.
• Consistency: Containers encapsulate the application and its dependencies, ensuring consistent behavior across different environments. This consistency across development, testing, and production reduces bugs related to environmental differences.
• Better dependency management: Containers package all the necessary dependencies for an application, eliminating conflicts that arise when applications require different versions of the same dependencies. This encapsulation simplifies dependency management and ensures reliable application performance across various environments.

2.3. BSD Jails

2.4. docker, 2.6. podman, 2.7. kubernetes, 2.8. openshift vs. kubernetes.

• Parallel Computing: HPC systems rely on parallel computing, where multiple processors perform computations simultaneously. This includes fine-grained parallelism, where tasks are divided into smaller subtasks, and coarse-grained parallelism, where larger independent tasks run concurrently [ 52 ].
• Multi-Core and Many-Core Processors: These processors have multiple processing cores on a single chip and are connected with high-bandwidth communication links, including a QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) bus [ 53 ].
• Accelerators and Heterogeneous Computing: HPC systems use accelerators like GPUs, FPGAs, and specialized processing units to handle specific calculations more efficiently than general-purpose CPUs. Heterogeneous computing combines CPUs with accelerators, leveraging the strengths of different processing units to optimize performance [ 54 ].
• Distributed and Cluster Computing: HPC systems are often organized as clusters of interconnected computers (nodes), each with its own processors, memory, and storage. These clusters can scale to thousands of nodes, handling large datasets and complex simulations. Interconnects like InfiniBand and high-speed Ethernet enable fast node communication [ 57 ].
• Memory Hierarchy and Storage: Due to the large data volumes processed, efficient memory management is critical in HPC systems. HPC architectures use multi-level memory hierarchies, including cache, main memory, and high-speed storage solutions, to ensure quick data access and minimize latency [ 58 ]. This is why we need a good strategy to port and optimize existing applications to a massively parallel processor (MPP) system [ 59 ].

3. Virtualization vs. Containers

• Architecture: Virtualization employs a hypervisor to create and manage VMs, each with its own OS. In contrast, Podman runs containers on a shared OS kernel, which reduces overhead and boosts efficiency.
• Isolation: VMs achieve strong isolation by running separate OS instances. Podman containers provide process and filesystem isolation through namespaces and control groups, which, while less robust, are adequate for many applications.
• Resource Overhead: Virtualization demands more resources because an entire OS instance is needed per VM. Podman containers are lightweight, sharing the host OS kernel and minimizing resource usage.
• Performance: VMs generally have higher overhead and can be less efficient. Podman containers deliver better performance and faster startup times since they do not require a full OS boot.
• Deployment Speed: Deploying VMs takes longer due to OS initialization. Podman containers can be deployed rapidly, making them ideal for quick development and scaling.
• Resource Allocation: Resource allocation in virtualization is managed through the hypervisor and can be static or dynamic. Podman allows for flexible, real-time resource allocation for containers.
• Use Cases: Virtualization is well suited for running diverse OS environments, legacy applications, and high-security workloads. Podman excels in microservices, CI/CD pipelines, and modern application development.
• Security: VMs offer strong security with robust isolation, making them suitable for untrusted workloads. Podman containers are secure but rely on the host OS kernel, which can present vulnerabilities.
• Maintenance: Managing VMs involves handling multiple OS instances, leading to higher maintenance overhead. Podman containers simplify maintenance by sharing the host OS and dependencies.
• Compatibility: VMs can run different OS types and versions on a single host. Podman containers are limited to the host OS kernel but can quickly move across compatible environments.

4. Challenges Using Containers for HPC Workloads

• HPC application problem size and complexity: HPC apps have large datasets and complex calculations that a single processor cannot efficiently manage. Because of this, the problem is divided into many small tasks that can be processed concurrently using multiple processors or nodes [ 13 ].
• Speed and efficiency: Massively parallel design enables HPC apps to be quickly executed on HPC systems much faster than traditional computing methods. HPC applications can achieve significant speedups by utilizing hundreds, thousands, or more processors in parallel, solving problems much quicker than with a single processor [ 14 ].
• Scalability: HPC application scalability is essential to HPC application design, especially as datasets grow larger and more complex problems are found, necessitating more computation power. Different parallel algorithms are developed to improve performance as we scale to more processors [ 15 ].
• MPI (Message Passing Interface): Allows processors to communicate by sending and receiving MPI messages.
• OpenMP (Open Multi-Processing): This enables us to perform parallel application programming for shared memory architecture.
• CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture): Enables parallel processing on GPUs, often used for HPC because they are massively parallel hardware devices by design [ 24 ]. In GPU parallel programming and a CUDA framework, “kernels” and “threads” are foundational concepts for programming [ 63 ].
• HPC applications are usually deployed as standard applications, meaning they must be re-packaged into layers and container images if we want to run them in containers. This is a complex process and poses a real challenge. It is like the regular DevOps story of re-architecting a monolith application to be a microservices-based application, only much worse because HPC application libraries tend to be gigabytes and terabytes in size [ 14 ]. And that is even before we start discussing all potential security issues (image vulnerabilities, malware, clear text secrets, configuration issues, untrusted images, etc.) [ 64 ] or potential performance degradation [ 65 ].
• Even if we manage to package them into containers—which is not a given—we need to be able to run them on a scale, which means running them via Kubernetes. Again, this is not a small task, as understanding Kubernetes architecture, commands, intricacies, and the YAML files we need to create to run applications manually is also very complex.

5. Experimental Setup and Study Methodology

6. testing results.

• Default scheduler response time—The time required for the Kubernetes cluster to schedule a three-tier web app and for the front of that app to become available using the default Kubernetes scheduler. This is the correct testing methodology for that scenario, as it is only when the front end starts accepting client requests that we can say that the service is scheduled and operational.
• Custom scheduler response time—The time required for the Kubernetes cluster to schedule a three-tier web app and for the front end of that app to become available by using our Python-based custom scheduler.
• We could develop a custom scheduler per HPC application to place applications on Kubernetes pods. This would require a lot of time in terms of coding the Kubernetes schedulers, which might or might not work. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that this approach would work across multiple HPC data centers, making the idea less efficient and potentially wrong.
• We could develop something that acts as if a set of custom schedulers is present, without writing a set of custom schedulers, that could modify workload placement as it gathers information from the environment, learns about it, and then explicitly places workloads (or better yet, offers to place workloads) on a more suitable node or set of nodes. This is why we went with an ML-based idea that completely replaces the concept of writing multiple schedulers for multiple applications, as this process becomes unnecessary.

7.1. Hardware Stack/Layer

7.2. software stack/layer, 7.3. machine learning layer, 7.4. user interface layer, 7.5. monitoring layer, 8. scheduling of hpc workloads on our platform via ml or manual placement, 8.1. manual workload placement, 8.2. ml-based workload placement.

• POWER usage—A set of timestamped power readings from the PDU socket and server remote management, sampled at configurable intervals. These readings estimate HPC application power requirements, significantly improving the platform’s energy efficiency, especially given time and many workload executions to become even more accurate.
• HEALTH information—A set of parameters taken from server remote management handling the health states of components, specifically fans, memory health state, power supply health state, power state (redundant or not), processor health state, storage health state, network, and remote management health state and temperatures.
• CPU, memory, storage, and networking testing results—As the server is provisioned from our platform in multiple passes, pre-determined synthetic and real-life benchmarks are automatically performed and averaged across the configurable number of runs. These bare-metal and containerized benchmarks determine the baseline hardware performance level for all servers added to the system. We use sysbench, stress-ng, hdparm, HPL, HPCC, and HPL with various parameters to gauge performance in single and multi-tasking scenarios.
• NVIDIA GPU results—A set of pre-determined synthetic and real-life benchmarks is automatically performed. The server with the installed NVIDIA GPU is provisioned from our platform in multiple takes, averaged across the configurable number of runs. We use NVIDIA HPC-Benchmarks for this purpose.
• FPGA/ASIC availability—For supported FPGA/ASIC controllers, platform users can manually add additional scores per app. Ideally, this would be automated, but it is currently impossible because of the different software stacks used by FPGAs and ASICs.

Announcing the 2024 Stone Center Thesis and Dissertation Award Winners

The James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Center for Research on Wealth Inequality and Mobility Undergraduate Thesis Award, created in 2023, is annually awarded to two exceptional University of Chicago undergraduate students, along with two graduate students and two PhD students. This accolade celebrates outstanding research within the social sciences and public policy, focusing on themes of inequality within the United States or across diverse cultural contexts.

"There was a remarkable level of interest in our program this year!” said Grace Hammond , executive director of the Stone Center. “The number of nominations we received was four times higher than what we received in our first year, demonstrating the strong support from advisors for their college, master’s, and Ph.D. students engaged in inequality research.”

The Stone Center Thesis and Dissertation Award winners are:

Award for Public Policy

Douglas Williams

Thesis: “Disaggregating National Trends In Homeless: Quantifying the effects of Latin American asylum seekers and the growth of West Coast unsheltered homelessness on spiking homeless estimates”

Douglas Williams’s thesis investigates the unprecedented surge in US homelessness highlighted in the 2023 Point-In-Time Count, particularly in cities like Chicago, attributed in part to South and Central American asylum seekers. This influx has doubled the increase and poses new challenges for homelessness and immigration services. The study also reveals the concentrated rise in street homelessness in a few California counties. These findings underscore the urgent need for targeted policies and support systems to address the evolving complexities of homelessness in affected communities.

Douglas is graduating with a dual degree in Public Policy and Data Science. In addition to his time spent in activism for the Black Lives Matter and Illinois Bail Reform movements, he has worked with the 3DL geometric deep learning lab and on various public policy issues such as political polarization and algorithmic bias. He will be joining the Comprehensive Income Dataset Project (CID) as a Pre-Doctoral Researcher after graduation.

Renato de Angelis

Thesis: “The Intergenerational Occupational Mobility of Native American Men in the Wake of Assimilation, 1900-1940”

Renato de Angelis’s thesis explores the social mobility of Native Americans in the early 20th century, a period often overlooked in social mobility studies. Using census data, it reveals high levels of downward mobility and limited upward mobility both on and off reservations during this era of assimilationist policies and economic volatility. Mobility prospects were marginally better for those living outside reservation counties but remained generally low across all groups. The data suggests that reservations may have functioned as mobility traps for Native Americans during this time.

Renato received her bachelor’s in Public Policy Studies and Statistics. During her time at UChicago, she has worked as a research assistant for professors in the Economics and Political Science departments, as well as at the Stone proper. After graduation, she will return to the Stone Center to work as a predoc with Professor Durlauf.

Award in the Social Sciences

Isabella Ramkissoon

Thesis: “Young Children’s Sociopolitical Worldviews”

Isabella Ramkissoon’s thesis explores how children develop early socio-political views on inequality and social mobility, resembling adult perspectives by elementary school. It finds that children's beliefs in authoritarianism and social dominance correlate positively, indicating a coherent worldview. Moreover, children of politically conservative parents tend to exhibit greater tolerance for inequality and more traditional values compared to those with liberal parents, suggesting parental influence on early political attitudes. These findings underscore the early emergence and familial shaping of children's socio-political orientations.

Isabella is majoring in Psychology. She has worked as a research assistant at the Development of Social Cognition (DSC) Laboratory since her second year where she completed her undergraduate thesis project and has won the prestigious Earl R. Franklin Fellowship in 2023 to support her thesis research. After graduating, she plans to continue working on her thesis research at the DSC and intends to pursue a PhD in Developmental Psychology and, eventually, a career in academia.

Maggie Rivera

Thesis: “Sanctuary in the Schoolyard? The Case of the Wadsworth Migrant Shelter”

Maggie Rivera’s thesis examines community responses to migrant shelters in Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood, refuting media claims of "Black-Latino tensions" or "NIMBYism." It argues instead that residents' frustrations reflect historical inequities and a systemic disregard for local input in policymaking. Inspired by Eve L. Ewing's insights, the research reveals overlooked community efforts to engage with city officials for inclusive solutions, challenging narratives that overlook these collaborative efforts. This shift in perspective underscores that inequality extends beyond material disparities to include the marginalization of local voices and community-driven solutions in urban policy discussions.

Maggie completed a master’s in social science in her undergraduate program. Throughout her time at UChicago, she has worked extensively with the College's University Community Service (UCSC) Center and Writing Program. She has also partnered with several local faith organizations and nonprofit programs. After graduation, she will continue working in Chicago’s nonprofit sector.

Joseph Spada

Thesis: “Employment Effects of Minimum Wage Increases: Evidence from New Jersey”

Joseph Spada’s thesis explores the impact of minimum wage increases, focusing on New Jersey's phased-in $15 minimum wage. Motivated by initial economic theory suggesting job losses from wage hikes, the research was sparked by Card and Kreuger's surprising findings of positive employment effects. Key findings indicate that New Jersey's minimum wage increase led to temporary boosts in employment without significant job losses among low-wage workers. These results challenge traditional economic assumptions and support minimum wage increases as a means to enhance income for low-wage earners, thereby addressing income inequality.

Joseph has worked as an associate at Keystone Strategy, an economics and strategy consulting firm in New York City. He joined the MAPSS program at UChicago in 2023 and will be receiving a Master of Arts in the Social Sciences with a concentration in Economics. After MAPSS, he will be working as a research assistant at the Hoover Institution at Stanford, after which he plans to apply to PhD programs in Economics.

PhD Awards:

Ilana Ventura

Thesis: “A Home In The Homeland: Understanding Latino First and Second-Generation Transnational Ties”

Ilana Ventura’s thesis investigates how Latin American immigrants and their second-generation descendants in the U.S. maintain ties to their homelands through property ownership abroad. It argues that owning property serves dual purposes: economic investment and preservation of familial and cultural connections. This transnational approach allows individuals to integrate into American society while maintaining emotional and economic ties overseas, offering stability and identity continuity amidst challenges like discrimination or legal status concerns in the U.S.

Ilana received her PhD in Sociology in 2024 and works as a Researcher Methodologist at NORC at UChicago. She has taught sociology courses at UChicago and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, as well as methods-based short courses for various clients. Her work appears in many accredited journals such as the International Migration Review.

Angela Wyse

Thesis: “Essays on Homelessness”

Angela Wyse’s dissertation investigates homelessness in the U.S. utilizing detailed and nationally representative data. The research underscores severe material deprivation among homeless individuals despite their engagement with formal employment and safety net programs and also reveals stark health disparities, showing that homeless individuals face mortality risks comparable to significantly older housed individuals. These findings offer critical insights for addressing homelessness and set a new trajectory for quantitative research in economics and social policy.

Angela holds a Ph.D. in Public Policy from the Harris School and will join Dartmouth College as an Assistant Professor of Economics in Fall 2024. She holds a B.A. in Public Policy from the University of Michigan and a Masters in Public Policy from the Harvard Kennedy School. Before Harris, she spent five years as a U.S. Foreign Service Officer, completing tours in Casablanca, Morocco and Karachi, Pakistan

Other Requirements:

• Formation of Graduate Dissertation Committee
• Successful completion of Graduate Preliminary Exam
• Research on a significant scientific problem
• Successful completion of Ph.D. Candidacy Exam
• Successful completion of Dissertation Defense

Formation of Graduate Committee

The student needs to establish a Dissertation Committee within the first year of study. The Committee should consist of at least four faculty members, including the primary faculty advisor (serving as the Committee Chair), a secondary faculty advisor (in a complementary field to the primary advisor), a second faculty from the home department, and one CBCB affiliate faculty outside the Departments of the primary and secondary advisors or from outside the University. Students must complete the Dissertation Committee Formation form and submit to the Associate Director.

Students should convene their dissertation committee at least once every six months.

Preliminary Examination

The preliminary examination should be taken before the end of the fourth semester and will consist of an oral exam in subjects based on the Bioinformatics Data Science core.* In recognition of the importance of the core curriculum in providing a good test of the student’s knowledge, students must achieve a minimum 3.0 GPA in the core curriculum before taking the preliminary exam. Students will not be permitted to take the preliminary examination if the core grade requirements and cumulative GPA of 3.0 has not been achieved. The exam will be administered by the Preliminary Exam Committee , which will consist of one instructor from each of the three core courses. Each member of the Committee will provide a single grade (pass, conditional pass or fail) and the final grades will be submitted via the Results of Preliminary Exam Form :

• Pass . The student may proceed to the next stage of his/her degree training.
• Conditional pass . In the event that the examination committee feels that the student did not have an adequate background or understanding in one or more specific areas, the Preliminary Exam Committee will communicate the conditional pass to the student and must provide the student with specific requirements and guidelines for completing the conditional pass. The student must inform the Preliminary Exam Committee, the Graduate Program Director and Program Committee when these conditions have been completed. The Preliminary Exam Committee will then meet with the student to ensure all recommendations have been completed and whether a re-examination is necessary. If required, the re-examination will be done using the same format and prior to the beginning of the next academic semester. If the student still does not perform satisfactorily on this re-examination, he/she will then be recommended to the Graduate Affairs Committee for dismissal from the graduate program.
• Failure . This outcome would indicate that the Examination Committee considers the student incapable of completing degree training. The student’s academic progress will be reviewed by the Graduate Affairs Committee, who will make recommendations to the Program Director regarding the student’s enrollment status. The Program Director may recommend to the Graduate College that the student be dismissed from the Program immediately.

*Students who need to complete prerequisite courses may request a deadline extension for the preliminary and subsequently the candidacy examination. Requests must be submitted to the Graduate Program Committee prior to the start of the third semester.

Candidacy Exam

The candidacy examination must be completed by the end of the sixth semester of enrollment.* It requires a formal, detailed proposal be submitted to the Dissertation Committee and an oral defense of the student’s proposed research project. Upon the recommendation of the Dissertation Committee, the student may be admitted to candidacy for the Ph.D. degree. The stipulations for admission to doctoral candidacy are that the student has (i) completed one academic years of full-time graduate study in residence at the University of Delaware, (ii) completed all required courses with the exception of BINF865 and BINF969, (iii) passed the preliminary exams, (iv) demonstrated the ability to perform research, and (v) had a research project accepted by the Dissertation Committee. Within one week of the candidacy exam, complete and submit the Recommendation for Candidacy for Doctoral Degree form for details. A copy of the completed form should be given to the Associate Director.

*Students who need to complete prerequisite courses may request a deadline extension for the preliminary and subsequently the candidacy examination.  Requests must be submitted to the Graduate Program Committee prior to the start of the third semester.

Dissertation Exam

The dissertation examination of the Ph.D. program will involve the approval of the written dissertation and an oral defense of the candidate’s dissertation.  The written dissertation will be submitted to the Dissertation Committee and the CBCB office at least three weeks in advance of the oral defense date.  The oral defense date will be publicly announced at least two weeks prior to the scheduled date. The oral presentation will be open to the public and all members of the Bioinformatics Data Science program. The Dissertation Committee will approve the candidate’s dissertation.

PhD Studies in Data Science

Phd offering.

The BSE Data Science Center is looking for students with a strong quantitative background interested in pursuing PhD studies in areas related to data science (DS): Statistics, Machine Learning, Probability, Operations Research, and their applications in Economics. To be eligible to apply to such PhD studies students should have (or be in the final year of) a degree in Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics or related discipline. A way to acquire such a background is to first enroll in our master in Data Science Methodology ( https://bse.eu/study/masters-programs/data-science-methodology ). To follow this route, you should indicate your interest in pursuing PhD studies in your motivation letter when applying to the master. Selected students receive a tuition waiver for the master program. We emphasize however that applying to a PhD is a separate process from enrolling into the Data Science master at BSE, and in particular that doing the master is no guarantee of being admitted into the PhD afterwards. Admittance to a PhD program is done on a competitive basis, and depends on the resources available each year. There are two main routes to pursue PhD studies. 1. Apply to the PhD program of the Dept. of Economics & Business at UPF. For students doing the master in Data Science, the application would be at the end of the 1st term of the program. Students should apply to the MRes year (Year 2) of the PhD program at UPF, see  https://www.upf.edu/web/econ/phd-track  for further information on how to apply. If admitted, upon entering the program, the student takes a selection of courses and produces a Master of Research thesis, which is typically preliminary work towards the PhD thesis. Data Science students take a specially designed coursework, selected from courses in  https://www.upf.edu/es/web/econ/courses , to be agreed upon with their advisors. 2. Apply to the PhD program at a collaborating institution, such as the Statistics program at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya ( https://www.eio.upc.edu/en/doctorate/doctoral-program-of-the-department-of-statistics-and-operations-research ). The PhD would be under the supervision of a Data Science Center Faculty member. In such a program there is typically no coursework and students start working on their PhD thesis from day 1.

How to apply

All interested applicants should submit the materials specified below to the Data Science PhD selection committee at  [email protected] , before Jan 15. Late applications may be considered in exceptional circumstances. 1. Students interested in the PhD program at UPF must also submit an application to Year 2, following the instructions for the MRes Online Application. The deadline for that application is usually Jan 15, but double-check the UPF website.   2. Students who wish to pursue a PhD at a collaborating institution outside UPF should, in a first instance, send their application to the Data Science PhD selection committee only.   Applications to the Data Science PhD selection committee must include: – A copy of your final official undergraduate academic transcript, showing courses taken and grades obtained. – If you have finished graduate studies or are currently undergoing a master’s degree when you submit your application, a copy of the final or provisional graduate academic transcript, showing courses taken and grades obtained – A motivation letter, including a concise statement on research interests. – Two academic reference letters. If applying to the UPF program, besides uploading the letters at the UPF system they should also be emailed to  [email protected] . Please ensure that your referees send the letters by the deadline

An Overview of the IELTS

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is designed to measure English proficiency for educational, vocational and immigration purposes. The IELTS measures an individual's ability to communicate in English across four areas of language: listening , reading , writing and speaking . The IELTS is administered jointly by the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia and Cambridge English Language Assessment at over 1,100 test centres and 140 countries. These test centres supervise the local administration of the test and recruit, train and monitor IELTS examiners.

IELTS tests are available on 48 fixed dates each year, usually Saturdays and sometimes Thursdays, and may be offered up to four times a month at any test centre, including Elektrostal' depending on local needs. Go to IELTS test locations to find a test centre in or nearby Elektrostal' and to check for upcoming test dates at your test centre.

Test results are available online 13 days after your test date. You can either receive your Test Report Form by post or collect it from the Test Centre. You will normally only receive one copy of the Test Report Form, though you may ask for a second copy if you are applying to the UK or Canada for immigration purposes - be sure to specify this when you register for IELTS. You may ask for up to 5 copies of your Test Report Form to be sent directly to other organisations, such as universities.

There are no restrictions on re-sitting the IELTS. However, you would need to allow sufficient time to complete the registration procedures again and find a suitable test date.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.
