AbstractRPIThe focus of Rensselaer's VIGRE activities is mathematical training directed towards contemporary scientific problem solving. This includes disciplinary depth as well as exposure to, and participation in, interdisciplinary research programs in both academic and non-academic settings. In the process, students and postdoctoral fellows are involved in a broad variety of different research and educational activities. This includes scholarly work to learn new material, research to generate new results, talks to communicate new techniques and results, and curriculum development and excellence in classroom teaching. The fundamental integrating activity for the vertically structured groups are research and communication seminars. The main goal of the program is the enrichment of the educational experience of students and postdocs, to promote the research and educational activities at Rensselaer, and to encourage and advance mathematical science students and postdocs toward academic careers. This provides a foundation for what is essential in science today, that is, breadth of knowledge and the ability to communicate effectively across traditional disciplinary boundaries. Our program links undergraduate, graduate and postdoc career enhancing experiences together with K-12 outreach. Our strengths are in interdisciplinary activities including strong industrial connections together with nationally recognized innovative educational activities. Our product will be well-trained professionals ready for successful academic careers. The impact of the Rensselaer program will be in producing mathematical scientists with industrial problem solving experience, with a strong understanding of applications areas, with analysis, modeling and numerical computation skills, with the ability to creatively produce new mathematics needed to solve applied problems, with innovative education and teaching experiences, and with the ability to participate in the building of academic applied mathematics programs. Funding for this award is provided by the Division of Mathematical Sciences and the MPS Directorate's Office of Multidisciplinary Activities.

伦斯勒（Rensselaer）的Vigre活动的焦点是针对当代科学问题解决的数学培训。 这包括纪律深度以及在学术和非学术环境中的跨学科研究计划和参与。 在此过程中，学生和博士后研究员参与了各种不同的研究和教育活动。这包括学习新材料的学术工作，研究新成果的研究，交流新技术和结果的对话，以及课程发展和课堂教学的卓越。垂直结构化群体的基本整合活动是研究和交流研讨会。 该计划的主要目标是丰富学生和博士后的教育经验，以促进伦斯勒的研究和教育活动，并鼓励和推进数学科学专业的学生和博士后对学术职业。 这为当今的科学至关重要，即知识的广度和在传统纪律界限上有效沟通的能力为基础。我们的计划链接本科生，研究生和博士后职业生涯增强体验与K-12外展活动。我们的优势在于跨学科的活动，包括牢固的工业联系，以及全国认可的创新教育活动。 我们的产品将是训练有素的专业人士，为成功的学术职业做好准备。 RensSelaer计划的影响将在生产具有工业问题解决经验的数学科学家，对应用领域有深入了解，具有分析，建模和数值计算能力，以及能够创造性地产生解决应用问题的新数学，具有创新的教育和教学经验，并能够参与学术数学课程。该奖项的资金由数学科学部和国会议员局多学科活动办公室提供。
