VIGRE Program Meeting 2002, May 3-4, 2002, Reston, Virginia

美国数学协会（MAA）、美国数学学会（AMS）、美国统计学会（ASA）和工业与应用数学学会（SIAM）将主办一次会议，提供有关美国国家科学基金会数学科学部研究与教育垂直整合计划（VIGRE）的信息。与会者将是来自拥有数学科学博士学位的美国机构的代表性教师。这个奖支持这些代表出席会议。由于VIGRE项目（现在是它的第三个年头）已经授予了大约30项资助，VIGRE征集的各种核心要素的宝贵经验现在应该与数学科学界分享。这次有关各方会议将强调VIGRE项目在全国范围内的经验和示范做法。会议的形式允许讨论VIGRE计划对当地和全球数学科学的影响。会议于2002年5月3日至4日在华盛顿特区举行，演讲者来自雇用数学科学家的机构，包括各种学术机构、商业、工业和政府机构。预计将有125至150名感兴趣的数学科学家参加这次会议。

NSF Award Abstract - DMS-0216549Mathematical Sciences: VIGRE Program Meeting 2002Abstract0216549 StraleyThe Mathematical Association of America (MAA), the American Mathematical Society (AMS), the American Statistical Association (ASA), and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), will host a meeting to provide information about the program in Vertical Integration of Research and Education (VIGRE) of the NSF Division of Mathematical Sciences. Attendees will be representative faculty members from U.S. institutions with Ph.D.-granting departments of mathematical sciences. This award supports attendance of these representatives at the meeting.Since the VIGRE program (now in its third year) has awarded approximately thirty grants, valuable experience with the various core elements of the VIGRE solicitation should now be shared with the mathematical sciences communities. This conference of interested parties will emphasize the experiences and exemplary practices of VIGRE projects nationwide. The format of the meeting allows for discussions of the impact that the VIGRE program has had on the mathematical sciences both locally and globally.The meeting, held in the Washington, DC area on 3-4 May 2002, includes speakers from institutions that employ mathematical scientists, including a variety of academic institutions, business, industry, and government agencies. It is anticipated that between 125 and 150 interested mathematical scientists will attend this meeting.
