A Study to Evaluate the NSF's Vertical Integration of Research and Education (VIGRE) Program

该奖项支持一个项目，该项目旨在评估数学科学部(DMS)在数学科学研究和教育垂直整合(VIGRE)中的计划，并制作一份报告，其中包括对DMS未来计划管理的建议。这项评估将由国家科学院数学科学及其应用委员会(BMSA)召集的一个委员会进行。brbr这项拟议的研究将是对Vigre计划的首次社区评估，该计划是为改善数学科学研究企业的人力资本渠道而做出的重大努力。美国国家科学院以对科学政策问题进行客观和高质量的研究而享有盛誉。拟议活动的一个重要的更广泛的影响是，它将产生对其他学科的价值见解，这些学科本身可能采用类似Vigre的计划。

This award supports a project to evaluate the Division of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) program in Vertical Integration of Research and Education in the Mathematical Sciences (VIGRE) and to produce a report that includes recommendations to DMS for future management of the program. The evaluation is to be conducted by a committee to be convened by the National Academy of Sciences Board on Mathematical Sciences and their Applications (BMSA).brbrThe proposed study will be the first community-wide assessment of the VIGRE program, which is a major effort to improve the human capital pipeline for the mathematical sciences research enterprise. The National Academies has a premier reputation for objective and high-quality studies of science policy issues. A significant broader impact of the proposed activity is that it will produce insights of value to other disciplines that might adopt VIGRE-like programs themselves.
