Committee on the Profession
Award for Mathematics Programs that Make a Difference
This Award for Mathematics Programs that Make a Difference was established in 2005 by the AMS's Committee on the Profession to compile and publish a series of profiles of programs that:
-
aim to bring more persons from underrepresented backgrounds into some portion of the pipeline beginning at the undergraduate level and leading to advanced degrees in mathematics and professional success, or retain them once in the pipeline;
-
have achieved documentable success in doing so; and
-
are replicable models.
Award Details
Preference will be given to programs with significant participation by underrepresented minorities. Up to two programs are highlighted each year. Learn more about the nomination process.
