Targeted Infusion Project: New Curriculum and Undergraduate Research in Applied Mathematics at Tennessee State University

田纳西州立大学数学科学系的目标是开发和实施一个应用数学项目，旨在填补数学与其他STEM领域之间的差距。这将通过一系列战略构建的干预措施来实现，这些干预措施包括但不限于开发与应用数学相关的新课程和课程，将本科数学专业应用数学的新重点制度化，以及增强研究经验。总的来说，这些策略预计将使该机构数学专业的总人数增加10%，并建立该机构的科学能力和基础设施，从而提高整个本科生的数学和技术技能。因此，田纳西州立大学在促进美国STEM劳动力多样化方面具有独特的优势。

The Department of Mathematical Sciences at Tennessee State University has as its goal to develop and implement an applied mathematics program, which is designed to fill the gap between mathematics and other STEM areas. This will be achieved using a set of strategically constructed interventions that include, but are not limited to development of new courses and curricula related to applied mathematics, institutionalization of a new concentration in applied mathematics for undergraduate mathematics majors and enhancement of research experiences. Collectively, these strategies are expected to increase the overall number of mathematics majors at the institution by 10%, and build the science capacity and infrastructure of the institution such that the mathematical and technological skills of the entire undergraduate population are enhanced. As such, Tennessee State University is uniquely poised to contribute to diversifying the US STEM workforce.
