This project seeks to tap the vast amount of latent mathematical ability in the young people of America. Its goal is to expose students in these critical years to mathematics as practiced by professionals and to empower them with a feeling that useful information can be gleaned from the simplest of models. Interacting with these professionals, seeing their lifestyles and work habits, becoming involved with the same problems, will yield a much more accurate picture of careers in the mathematical sciences in the rewards, both intellectual and financial, that they bring. It is also necessary to involve instructors of the mathematical sciences in this adventure because it is they who will transmit the excitement and importance of mathematics and science on a day-to-day basis.

这个项目旨在挖掘美国年轻人潜在的大量数学能力。 它的目标是让学生在这些关键的几年里接触专业人士所实践的数学，并让他们感到可以从最简单的模型中收集有用的信息。 与这些专业人士互动，看到他们的生活方式和工作习惯，参与同样的问题，将产生一个更准确的画面职业生涯中的数学科学的回报，无论是智力和财政，他们带来的。 这也是必要的，涉及教师的数学科学在这一冒险，因为这是他们谁将传送的兴奋和重要性的数学和科学的日常基础上。
