Travel Support for ICIAM 2015

根据这笔赠款的条款，工业和应用数学学会(SIAM)将为大约100名美国数学和计算科学家，特别是早期职业教师和研究生管理一项旅行奖励计划，以参加将于2015年8月10日至14日在北京举行的国际工业和应用数学大会(ICIAM2015)，中国。ICIAM大会每四年举行一次，是展示数学和计算科学的进展及其在科学和技术中的应用的主要全球论坛。旅行奖项对早期职业研究人员和研究生尤其重要，否则他们可能难以筹集到足够的资金。如果没有旅行支持，他们很可能不会利用这一机会在国际范围内进行直接互动和建立联系。这种支持将帮助美国数学和计算科学家跟上世界各地正在开发的技术和科学应用的进步。颁奖过程将承认多样性的重要性，鼓励妇女和少数族裔申请，并优先考虑符合条件的申请者。

Under the terms of this grant, the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) will administer a travel award program for approximately 100 U. S. mathematical and computational scientists, particularly early career faculty and graduate students to attend the International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics (ICIAM 2015), to be held on August 10-14, 2015 in Beijing, China. The ICIAM congresses are held every four years and are the primary worldwide forum for presentation of advances in the mathematical and computational sciences and their applications to science and technology.Travel awards are especially important for early career researchers and graduate students who may otherwise have difficulty in marshalling sufficient funds. Without travel support, they would be likely to take less advantage of this opportunity for direct interaction and networking on an international scale. This support will help U.S. mathematical and computational scientists keep pace with the advances in applications to technology and science being developed throughout the world. The award process will acknowledge the importance of diversity, encourage women and minorities to apply, and give priority to qualified applicants.
