The basis of this project is to improve the computing facilities available for undergraduate Math majors at East Central University. East Central University, located in rural Oklahoma, has a strong Teacher Certification program and is also ranks highly in terms of the number of Bachelor degrees granted to native Americans. The Department of Mathematics currently has very limited and antiquated computing facilities, which denies students the opportunity of an education which exposes them to tech- nology, such as that which they will subsequently encounter in industry or graduate school. This lack of exposure to computing technology also impedes students' competitiveness in seeking employment upon graduation. With updated computing equipment, Mathematics majors, and especially those in the Honours program, will be able to incorporate modern technology into their studies, thereby enriching their educational experience and better preparing them for future encounters with technological innovation.

该项目的基础是改善华东中央大学数学专业本科生可用的计算设施。位于俄克拉荷马州农村的东中央大学拥有强大的教师认证项目，在授予美国原住民学士学位的数量方面也排名靠前。数学系目前拥有非常有限和陈旧的计算设施，这剥夺了学生接受教育的机会，使他们接触到技术，例如他们随后将在工业或研究生院遇到的技术。这种缺乏接触计算机技术的情况也阻碍了学生在毕业后寻找工作的竞争力。随着计算机设备的更新，数学专业的学生，特别是那些在荣誉计划，将能够将现代技术融入他们的研究，从而丰富他们的教育经验，更好地为他们未来的技术创新做好准备。
