VIGRE - A Great Deal Has Been Learned in Seven Years

七年前，国家科学基金会数学科学部成立了数学科学研究和教育垂直一体化(VIGRE)，以帮助增加在数学科学领域寻求职业生涯的准备充分的美国公民、国民和永久居民的数量。现在是时候报告通过该计划颁发的奖项所取得的成功，并分享这些成功经验，以供数学科学界进行潜在的改编。brbr该项目将编写两本书。第一本书面向数学科学系的教职员工和管理人员，介绍了过去七年资助的Vigre项目的有趣、成功的技术和方面，这些技术和方面可以作为模型使用，并适用于其他学院和大学。第二本较短的小册子是为立法者、国家科学院和其他NSF成员设计的，介绍了数学科学劳动力发展中的关键问题以及各种Vigre项目产生的一些积极成果。

Seven years ago, the Division of Mathematical Sciences at the National Science Foundation established the Vertical Integration of Research and Education in the Mathematical Sciences (VIGRE) to help increase the number of well-prepared U.S. citizens, nationals, and permanent residents who pursue careers in the mathematical sciences. It is now time to report on the successes experienced through awards made by this program and to share these successes for potential adaptation by the mathematical sciences community.brbrThis project will develop two books. The first one, for faculty and administrators in departments of mathematical sciences, describes interesting successful techniques and aspects of VIGRE projects funded over the last seven years, which can be used as models and adapted for use at other colleges and universities. A second shorter pamphlet, designed for a general audience of legislators, the National Academy of Sciences, and other NSF constituents, describes the critical issues in the development of the mathematical sciences workforce and some of the positive outcomes produced by the various VIGRE projects.
