VIGRE - A Great Deal Has Been Learned in Seven Years

七年前，美国国家科学基金会数学科学部建立了数学科学研究和教育的垂直整合（VIGRE），以帮助增加准备充分的美国公民，国民和永久居民在数学科学领域的职业生涯。 现在是时候报告通过该计划获得的奖项所取得的成功，并分享这些成功，以便数学科学界进行潜在的调整。brbr本项目将编写两本书。第一个，教师和管理人员在数学科学部门，描述了有趣的成功的技术和方面的VIGRE项目资助在过去七年中，这可以被用作模型，并适用于其他学院和大学。 第二个较短的小册子，专为一般观众的立法者，美国国家科学院，和其他NSF的成分，描述了关键问题的发展数学科学的劳动力和一些积极的成果所产生的各种VIGRE项目。

Seven years ago, the Division of Mathematical Sciences at the National Science Foundation established the Vertical Integration of Research and Education in the Mathematical Sciences (VIGRE) to help increase the number of well-prepared U.S. citizens, nationals, and permanent residents who pursue careers in the mathematical sciences. It is now time to report on the successes experienced through awards made by this program and to share these successes for potential adaptation by the mathematical sciences community.brbrThis project will develop two books. The first one, for faculty and administrators in departments of mathematical sciences, describes interesting successful techniques and aspects of VIGRE projects funded over the last seven years, which can be used as models and adapted for use at other colleges and universities. A second shorter pamphlet, designed for a general audience of legislators, the National Academy of Sciences, and other NSF constituents, describes the critical issues in the development of the mathematical sciences workforce and some of the positive outcomes produced by the various VIGRE projects.
