This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).The Professional Applied and Computational Mathematics program is a collaborative Science Masters Program offered by Buffalo State College and its business partners. The program is educating graduate students for careers in emerging fields that demand a new type of workforce with solid and in-depth background in applied and computational mathematics, as well as effective business and communication skills. This program uses graduate faculty with demonstrated records to educate students in both the classroom and the workplace. This faculty has created a carefully designed and extremely thorough curriculum that includes 9-credits in each the topics of (1) data analysis, (2) mathematical modeling, and (3) business and communication skills. As part of the program students also complete a 3-credit internship. The core courses are broken into 1-credit modules, which are easy to be upgraded or replaced and include "real world" case studies. The research and internship experiences provide students opportunity to analyze and solve "real world" problems. The broader impact of the program includes (1) increasing the participation of female students and students from under-represented minorities in graduate studies in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics disciplines and (2) preparing graduate students for careers in business, industry, non-profit organizations, and government agencies with a strong foundation in applied and computational mathematics, as well as business and communication skills, to succeed in those careers that demand a broadly inclusive, well-trained science and engineering workforce.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。专业应用和计算数学课程是由布法罗州立大学及其商业合作伙伴提供的合作科学硕士课程。该计划正在教育研究生在新兴领域的职业生涯，这些领域需要一种新型的劳动力，在应用和计算数学方面具有坚实和深入的背景，以及有效的商业和沟通技能。该计划使用具有证明记录的研究生教师在课堂和工作场所教育学生。 该学院创建了一个精心设计和非常全面的课程，包括（1）数据分析，（2）数学建模，（3）商业和沟通技巧的每个主题的9个学分。 作为该计划的一部分，学生还完成了3学分的实习。 核心课程分为1学分模块，易于升级或更换，包括“真实的世界”案例研究。研究和实习经验为学生提供了分析和解决“真实的世界”问题的机会。该计划的更广泛的影响包括：（1）增加女生和来自代表性不足的少数民族的学生在科学，技术，工程和数学学科的研究生学习的参与，以及（2）为研究生在商业，工业，非营利组织和政府机构的职业生涯做好准备，在应用和计算数学方面有坚实的基础，以及商业和沟通技能，在那些需要广泛包容，训练有素的科学和工程劳动力的职业生涯中取得成功。
