The Mathematical Sciences in the Year 2000: Assessment for Renewal in U.S. Colleges and Universities

美国学院和大学的数学科学必须应对过去15年来数学性质的巨大变化，并为未来快速变化和复杂的国家需求做好准备。MS2000项目将对学院和大学的数学科学进行全面评估，并制定立即振兴和到2000年更新的议程。目前的工作包括规划、初步人员配置、编写一份关于数学人才供应和利用的审查文件，以及组建一个监督委员会并举行一次会议。

The mathematical sciences in U.S. colleges and universities must respond to dramatic changes in the nature of mathematics in the past 15 years and prepare for the rapidly changing and complex national needs of the future. The project MS2000 will produce a comprehensive assessment of college and university mathematical sciences and an agenda for reinvigoration immediately and for renewal by the year 2000. The present undertaking involves planning, initial staffing, the preparation of a review paper on the supply and utilization of mathematical talent, and the formation and one meeting of an oversight committee.
