This project is to assist The Mathematical Association of America (MAA) in the dissemination of the MAA's career information booklet, Mathematical Scientists at Work. This projects helps to address the national agenda in mathematics and sciences education by providing career information about the opportunities in the mathematical sciences. Mathematics has been characterized as the "invisible culture of our age" within the general public; however, mathematical concepts and ideas are the underpinning of the technological environment in which we live. It has been recognized that students are more likely to study mathematics when they (together with their peers, parents, teachers, and counselors) recognize the career opportunities available in the mathematical sciences.

该项目旨在协助美国数学协会（MAA）传播该协会的职业信息小册子《工作中的数学科学家》。该项目通过提供有关数学科学机会的职业信息，帮助解决国家数学和科学教育议程。数学在大众中被描述为“我们这个时代看不见的文化”；然而，数学概念和思想是我们生活的技术环境的基础。人们已经认识到，当学生（与他们的同龄人、父母、老师和辅导员一起）认识到数学科学领域的职业机会时，他们更有可能学习数学。
