The National Alliance for Doctoral Studies in the Mathematical Sciences ("The Alliance") is an alliance of mathematical sciences faculty and students with the following goals:1. To increase the number of doctoral degrees in the mathematical sciences among groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in these fields.2. To improve placement of students from these groups in doctoral programs in disciplines that recruit undergraduate mathematics majors.3. To increase the number of Ph.D.s from these groups who enter the professoriate in the mathematical sciences as well as other appropriate professions.4. To increase funded research collaborations among faculty members at universities with mathematical sciences doctoral programs and faculty members at colleges and universities focused on undergraduate students.5. To foster the growth of a community of mathematical scientists that promotes a diverse workforce.The Alliance brings together more than 200 faculty from colleges and universities that serve large percentages of undergraduate students from underrepresented backgrounds and nearly 100 of their counterparts at masters and doctoral granting mathematical sciences departments. It serves more than 400 undergraduate and master's level students from families, regions, and ethnic backgrounds that have had little prior contact with the culture and profession of research in the mathematical sciences. The Alliance has had initial success and it is growing rapidly, in numbers, in programs, and in its ties to other parts of the profession. This proposal provides funds to support Alliance programming and personnel to allow the organization to create an appropriate governance structure and infrastructure to support this growth as well as to begin the critical evaluation and research that will guide the Alliance in its growth and provide data and outcomes to those who would develop such programs in other STEM disciplines.

全国数学科学博士研究联盟（“联盟”）是数学科学教师和学生的联盟，目标如下：1。增加数学科学博士学位的数量，这些领域传统上代表性不足的群体。改善这些群体的学生在招收本科数学专业的学科博士课程中的安置。增加这些群体中进入数学科学和其他适当专业的博士人数。增加数学科学博士课程大学教师和以本科生为重点的学院和大学教师之间的资助研究合作。为了促进数学科学家社区的发展，促进多元化的劳动力。联盟汇集了来自高等院校的200多名教师，这些教师为来自代表性不足的背景的大部分本科生提供服务，以及近100名硕士和博士学位授予数学科学部门的同行。 它为来自家庭，地区和种族背景的400多名本科生和硕士生提供服务，这些学生以前很少接触数学科学研究的文化和专业。 该联盟已经取得了初步的成功，它正在迅速增长，在数量上，在程序上，并在其与专业的其他部分的联系。 该提案提供资金，以支持联盟的规划和人员，使该组织能够创建一个适当的治理结构和基础设施，以支持这种增长，以及开始关键的评估和研究，这将指导联盟在其增长，并提供数据和成果，那些谁将开发这样的计划在其他STEM学科。
