This project aims to enhance the training and mentoring of postdocs, graduate students, and undergraduates. It will strengthen connections among researchers at different career stages and in different research areas within algebraic and geometric topology and related disciplines. Important outcomes for the project are the development of structured feedback mechanisms for students and postdocs, expansion of professional development opportunities, increasing research collaboration amongst the graduate students, postdocs, and faculty, strengthening connections between the topology group at Michigan State University and those at peer institutions, and broadening access to graduate school for undergraduates. The activities are designed to have a lasting impact on the RTG participants as well as the broader topology research community.The project will incorporate four additional postdoctoral researchers, as well as supporting the research of twelve graduate students. Undergraduates will also be increasingly integrated into the activities of the topology group through the creation of a summer directed reading program and an undergraduate peer mentoring program. Inclusive mentoring and feedback processes for graduate students and postdocs will be introduced, as well as extensive professional development opportunities. Small groups of faculty, postdocs, and students will make extended visits to peer institutions to build stronger ties and broaden the impact of the research training group beyond the boundaries of the university. Other activities include structured vertical collaborations and new courses, seminars, and workshops, benefiting graduate students, postdocs, and faculty.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.

这个项目旨在加强对博士后、研究生和本科生的培训和指导。它将加强研究人员之间的联系，在不同的职业阶段，并在不同的研究领域内代数和几何拓扑学和相关学科。该项目的重要成果是为学生和博士后的结构化反馈机制的发展，扩大专业发展的机会，增加研究生，博士后和教师之间的研究合作，加强密歇根州立大学的拓扑组和那些在同行机构之间的联系，并扩大本科生进入研究生院。这些活动旨在对RTG参与者以及更广泛的拓扑研究社区产生持久的影响。该项目将包括四名额外的博士后研究人员，以及支持十二名研究生的研究。本科生也将越来越多地融入拓扑组的活动，通过创建一个夏季指导阅读计划和本科生同伴指导计划。将为研究生和博士后引入包容性的指导和反馈流程，以及广泛的专业发展机会。教师，博士后和学生的小组将扩大对同行机构的访问，以建立更强的联系，并扩大研究培训小组的影响超越大学的界限。其他活动包括结构化的纵向合作和新课程，研讨会和讲习班，使研究生，博士后和教师受益。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
