EMSW21 VIGRE Project: Integrated and Mentored Program of Researchand Education in Statistical Sciences (IMPRESS).The NC State Department of Statistics' second VIGRE program (IMPRESS) will continue development of the model training program for statisticians begun under the Department's first VIGRE award (VIGRE-I). Through participation of undergraduates, graduate students and postdoctoral trainees in faculty-mentored teams, our VIGRE program places problem-solving, research, consulting, and communication at the core of the learning process. Project IMPRESS will continue and expand upon the program of ambitious mentoring, research skills training, and practicum courses developed under VIGRE-I. IMPRESS will encourage participation by quantitatively-oriented students from diverse backgrounds and with diverse prior training, thus resulting in a net gain for the mathematical sciences of students from both traditional and under-represented student groups. IMPRESS will enhance the quality of statistics education at NC State and, through national dissemination, increase the number and improve the quality of statistical scientists in the professional workforce and the academy. The intellectual merits of our VIGRE program have been and will be manifest in the significance of the VIGRE trainees' and their mentors' contributions to statistical theory, methods and applications. Equally important are the indirect effects that the program will have on the conduct of data-dependent research in numerous fields of science and technology. Well-trained statisticians skilled at interacting with scientists from other disciplines are crucial to the advance of science. The human and societal impacts of Project IMPRESS include the current and future impact of our trainees' research on the conduct of science in numerous fields of science and technology, an increase in the number of statistically-trained scientists, and a broadening of the composition of the next generation of statistical scientists in terms of gender, ethnicity, and prior academic background.

EMSW21 VIGRE项目：统计科学研究与教育综合指导计划（IMPRESS）。北卡罗来纳州统计部门的第二个VIGRE项目（IMPRESS）将继续开发统计学家模型培训项目，该项目始于该部门的第一个VIGRE项目（VIGRE- i）。通过本科生、研究生和博士后学员参与教师指导的团队，VIGRE项目将解决问题、研究、咨询和沟通置于学习过程的核心。IMPRESS项目将继续并扩展在VIGRE-I下开发的雄心勃勃的指导、研究技能培训和实习课程计划。IMPRESS将鼓励来自不同背景和受过不同先前训练的以数量为导向的学生参与，从而使来自传统和代表性不足的学生群体的学生在数学科学方面获得净收益。IMPRESS将提高北卡州立大学统计教育的质量，并通过全国传播，增加专业人员和学院统计科学家的数量和质量。VIGRE项目的智力优势已经并将继续体现在VIGRE学员及其导师对统计理论、方法和应用的贡献上。同样重要的是，该计划将对许多科学和技术领域中依赖数据的研究产生间接影响。训练有素、善于与其他学科的科学家交流的统计学家对科学的进步至关重要。IMPRESS项目对人类和社会的影响包括：受训者的研究对众多科学和技术领域的科学行为的当前和未来影响，受过统计训练的科学家数量的增加，以及在性别、种族和先前学术背景方面扩大下一代统计科学家的构成。
