HRD-0429972The submitted nomination package is in support of a Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics, and Engineering Mentoring (PAESMEM) to recognize outstanding mentoring efforts or programs that enhance the participation of historically underrepresented groups in science, mathematics, and engineering.The Mathematics Department of the University of Iowa has become the single largest producer of doctorates awarded to mathematical scientists from underrepresented communities. This outcome is the result of a departmental (and university) commitment articulated less than ten years ago to increase the numbers of minority graduate students, an effort that has attracted external support through a series of US Dept. of Education's Graduate Assistance in Areas of National Need (GAANN) grants. The Department's success is based on: (1) a well-designed recruiting campaign to convince students that the environment is a welcome one; (2) a commitment to institutionalizing the effort; (3) and collaboration among faculty within the Department, between the Department and other components of the University as well as the Iowa state system. The Department clearly recognizes that the enrichment programs described in the proposal are of value to all graduate students, and by offering them in this way minimizes the risk of marginalizing minority students

HRD-0429972提交的提名计划是为了支持科学，数学和工程指导卓越奖（PAESMEM）的总统奖，以表彰杰出的指导工作或计划，以增强历史上代表性不足的科学，数学和工程学的参与。爱荷华大学的数学系已成为授予来自代表性不足社区的数学科学家的最大博士生产者。这个结果是不到十年前表达的部门（和大学）承诺的结果，以增加少数群体研究生的数量，这一努力通过一系列美国教育部门在国家领域的研究生帮助吸引了外部支持。需要（Gaann）赠款。该部门的成功基于：（1）一项精心设计的招聘运动，以说服学生对环境是一个受欢迎的环境； （2）对制度化努力的承诺； （3）以及该系的教师之间的合作，大学和大学的其他组成部分以及爱荷华州系统之间的合作。该部门清楚地认识到，提案中描述的丰富计划对所有研究生都很有价值，并通过这种方式将其最小化的风险最小化。
