This National Science Foundation award supports the fourth and fifth in the previously funded, successful series of Central States Mathematics Undergraduate Research (CeSMUR) conferences that will take place on April 20-21, 2018 in Lincoln, Nebraska, and in spring 2019 in Manhattan, Kansas, respectively. Research experience is very helpful in both the graduate application process, and in placement in technically demanding jobs. The scientific activities and mentoring interactions at CeSMUR are designed to encourage undergraduate students who are already engaged in research, and to inspire others to begin. The conference is comprised of one and a half days. The format follows the one successfully tested in previous editions. Two main speakers each give a one-hour lecture, and there is ample time for undergraduate student speakers to present their research. During the evening and lunch meetings students interact with the featured speakers and guest graduate students in attendance, and get advice on the next steps in their career. In addition to a commitment to increasing the number of highly trained STEM professionals, the conferences focus on increasing diversity in the mathematical workforce, via participation of first generation college students, females, and underrepresented minority groups. Further details regarding the 2018 CeSMUR conference can be found on the conference website: https://www.math.unl.edu/events/cesmur.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个国家科学基金会奖支持第四次和第五次在先前资助的，成功的一系列中部各州数学本科生研究（CeSMUR）会议将于2018年4月20日至21日在内布拉斯加州林肯举行，并于2019年春季在曼哈顿，堪萨斯，分别。研究经验对于研究生申请过程和技术要求高的工作都非常有帮助。CeSMUR的科学活动和指导互动旨在鼓励已经从事研究的本科生，并激励其他人开始。会议为期一天半。格式遵循在以前的版本中成功测试的格式。两个主要发言人每个给一个小时的讲座，并有足够的时间为本科生演讲者介绍他们的研究。在晚上和午餐会议期间，学生与出席会议的主讲人和客座研究生进行互动，并获得有关其职业生涯下一步的建议。除了致力于增加训练有素的STEM专业人员的数量外，会议还关注通过第一代大学生，女性和代表性不足的少数群体的参与来增加数学劳动力的多样性。 有关2018年CeSMUR会议的更多细节可以在会议网站上找到：https://www.math.unl.edu/events/cesmur.This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
