Recruitment Mentoring Mathematics Program

项目摘要

This grant will run a Recruitment and Mentoring in Mathematics Program (RAMMP) program, with the purpose of increasing the number of students from underrepresented groups entering doctoral programs in mathematical sciences. For three years, ten advanced undergraduate students will divide into teams and engage in mentored summer research projects in mathematics. The students will develop their interests in mathematics in an active, supportive community of peers. The program will be run at the City University of New York, an institution known for its student diversity, and will expose talented students to mathematical research and related activities, which form the daily work of a doctoral student but which many undergraduates never experience. This experience together with mentorship and community building activities continuing throughout the year will encourage the student participants to pursue higher degrees and careers in the mathematical sciences.Research problems will be selected from the fields of faculty members participating in the program including Number Theory, Combinatorics, Algebra, Dynamical Systems, and Geometry. The problems will have a significant computational component and will be chosen so that even partial student progress will advance the long-term research agendas of their faculty mentors. Mentors will choose accessible, open questions whose resolution would lead to the discovery of new phenomena or new proof techniques with broad applicability.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.

该基金将运行一个数学招募和指导项目（RAMMP），目的是增加来自代表性不足群体的学生进入数学科学博士课程的人数。在接下来的三年里，十名本科生将分成小组，参与导师的暑期数学研究项目。学生们将在一个活跃的、相互支持的同龄人社区中培养他们对数学的兴趣。该项目将在以学生多样性著称的纽约城市大学（City University of New York）开展，将让有才华的学生接触数学研究和相关活动，这是博士生的日常工作，但许多本科生从未经历过。这种经历以及全年持续的指导和社区建设活动将鼓励学生参与者在数学科学方面追求更高的学位和职业。研究问题将从参与数论、组合学、代数、动力系统和几何等领域的教师中选出。这些问题将有一个重要的计算组成部分，并且将被选择，以便即使是部分学生的进步也将推进他们的教师导师的长期研究议程。导师将选择易于理解的、开放的问题，这些问题的解决将导致发现新现象或具有广泛适用性的新证明技术。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。
