Mathematical Sciences: Third Annual Mathematics Summer Institute for Minority Undergraduates

这个暑期数学学院是一个为期六周的住宿研究暑期学校，约有25名来自美国和波多黎各的少数民族本科生。参加者将在1991年夏季之前以优异成绩完成至少两年的大学数学课程。每个学生都将参加两个密集的研讨会，这些研讨会旨在让学生深入探索数学主题，并体验创造数学的兴奋。所有研讨会的一个共同原则是帮助学生提高数学语言的流畅性，无论是书面还是口头。该研究所的总体目标是帮助学生完成从学习数学到做数学的重要过渡。该研究所将在伯克利校园举行，并在1989年和1990年成功举办的研究所的基础上继续和发展。这些研究所是旨在消除少数民族在数学和依赖数学的专业中代表性不足的全面国家战略的组成部分。

This Summer Mathematics Institute is a six-week residential research summer school for about 25 minority undergraduates from the United States and Puerto Rico. The participants will have completed at least two years of collegiate mathematics with distinction by Summer 1991. Each student will participate in two intensive seminars which have been designed to allow the student to explore a mathematical subject in depth and to experience the excitement of creating mathematics. A principal common to all seminars is helping students to develop increased fluency with mathematical language, both written and oral. The overall goal of the Institute is to help the students make the important transition from learning mathematics to doing mathematics. The Institute will be held on the Berkeley campus and continues and builds on successful Institutes held in 1989 and 1990. These Institutes are an integral part of a comprehensive national strategy aimed at eliminating the under-representation of minorities in mathematics and mathematics-dependent professions.
