The Alliance for the Production of African American PhD's in the Mathematical Sciences: A Conference at Florida A&M

这个项目是为期三天的会议/研讨会在佛罗里达A M大学，旨在制定战略和机制，使非洲裔美国学生从HBCUs进入研究生课程，导致在数学科学博士学位。 该请求是为了支持HBCUs参与：亚拉巴马A M，杰克逊州立大学，和南卡罗来纳州州立大学。会议响应NSF的计划征求NSF 00-109，旨在“促进基金会的努力，扩大国家的科学人员，包括学生和最近的博士生，妇女，少数民族.“会议的目标是：促进数学学生从参与HBCU转移到参与的大多数机构;为参与该计划的学生提供综合学生发展和咨询机会;并与行业和政府建立联系，为参与的学生提供实习和就业机会。

This project is a three-day conference/workshop at Florida A&M University designed to develop strategiesand mechanisms to bring African American students from HBCUs into graduate programs leading to the PhD in the mathematical sciences. The request is to support the HBCUs involved: Alabama A&M, Jackson State University, and South Carolina State University.The conference responds to the NSF's Program Solicitation NSF 00-109 and is designed to "contribute to the Foundations effort to enlarge the science personnel of the nation by including students and recent doctoralrecipients, women, minorities..." The goals of the conference are: To facilitate the transfer of mathematics students from the participating HBCUs to the participating majority institutions; to provide integrated student development and counseling oppportunities for the students participating in the program; and to institute linkages with industry and government which will provide intern and employment opportunities for the students involved.
