This award provides support for participation by junior researchers, graduate students, undergraduates, and high school teachers in the 34th Midwestern Conference on Combinatorics and Combinatorial Computing (MCCCC34), which will be held at Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois, on October 21-23, 2022. The MCCCC began as the Carbondale Combinatorics Conferences which were held (1986-1990) at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. The conference has since evolved into a prestigious national conference in all areas of combinatorics and combinatorial computing. It has achieved recognition and attracted scholars and researchers of various backgrounds from national and international institutions. A recent trend in the MCCCC series is the increased participation of graduate and undergraduate student researchers. The conference will feature 6 principal 50-minute speakers and about 60 contributed 20-minute talks by participants from throughout the nation and other parts of the world. We estimate around 100 participants will attend. The selection process for funding support will prioritize women, members of underrepresented groups, people with disabilities, veterans, and students. The Conference is supported in part by Illinois State University and by the Institute for Combinatorics and its Applications.After a 2-year hiatus due to the pandemic, we aim to nurture and expand the opportunities at the MCCCC34 by making mathematics research more accessible and inclusive, and emphasizing recruitment and support for both graduate and undergraduate students. MCCCC34 will cover a spectrum of pure and applied combinatorics, including graph theory, design theory, enumeration, and combinatorial computing. The conference will provide a conducive atmosphere for research mathematicians, graduate students, undergraduate students, and others interested in combinatorics and combinatorial computing to explore and discuss a variety of research problems in these areas, particularly problems that have a connection to both areas. The conference organizers aim to publish the conference proceedings in a research journal.

该奖项为初级研究人员，研究生，本科生和高中老师的参与提供了支持，该奖项将在中西部组合和组合计算机（MCCCC34）中学（MCCCC34），该会议将于伊利诺伊州伊利诺伊州立大学在伊利诺伊州立大学的伊利诺伊州立大学举行。伊利诺伊大学的卡宾代尔大学。此后，该会议已演变为在所有组合和组合计算领域的享有声望的全国会议。它获得了认可，并吸引了来自国家和国际机构的各种背景的学者和研究人员。 MCCCC系列的最新趋势是研究生和本科生研究人员的参与增加。该会议将由6名主要的50分钟演讲者和大约60个全国各地的参与者进行20分钟的演讲。我们估计将参加大约100名参与者。资金支持的甄选过程将优先考虑妇女，代表性不足的群体，残疾人，退伍军人和学生的成员。该会议得到了伊利诺伊州立大学和组合学研究所及其应用程序的部分支持。由于大流行，我们的目标是两年，我们的目标是培育和扩大MCCCC34的机会，通过使数学研究更易于访问和包容，并强调招聘和支持研究生和学生不足的学生。 MCCCC34将涵盖一系列纯和应用组合学，包括图理论，设计理论，枚举和组合计算。该会议将为研究数学家，研究生，本科生以及对组合学和组合计算的其他人提供有益的氛围，以探索和讨论这些领域的各种研究问题，尤其是与这两个领域有联系的问题。 会议组织者的目标是在研究期刊上发布会议记录。会议网站可以在以下网站上找到：https：//about.illinoisstate.edu/mcccc34/.this Award反映了NSF的法定任务，并且使用基金会的知识分子和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
