This award provides particpant support for the Mathematical Olympiad Summer Program, which brings together 60 highly talented students for an intensive three-week program of training and instruction. This award also supports two new initiatives in the summer program: a research component in the instruction, and a program for women students that will allow eight young women to represent the United States in a prestigious international mathematics competition.The United States has sent a team to the International Mathematics Olympiad each year since 1974. A founding objective for this global competition is to establish a foundation for future scientific collaboration between promosing students who will form the new generation of researchers in mathematics. The International Mathematics Olympiad is widely regarded as a pinnacle achievement for young mathematicians.

该奖项为数学奥林匹克夏季计划提供参与者支持，该计划汇集了60名极具天赋的学生，进行为期三周的密集培训和教学计划。该奖项还支持暑期项目中的两项新举措：教学中的研究部分，以及一个针对女学生的项目，该项目将允许8名年轻女性代表美国参加一项享有盛誉的国际数学竞赛。自1974年以来，美国每年都派出一支队伍参加国际数学奥林匹克竞赛。这项全球竞赛的创始目标是为促进学生之间未来的科学合作奠定基础，这些学生将成为新一代数学研究人员。国际数学奥林匹克被广泛认为是年轻数学家的巅峰成就。
