Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes in Wisconsin's Mathematical Sciences Research Grants Program Wisconsin's mathematical sciences research community is poised to benefit from the Grants to Stimulate Interest and Activity in Mathematical Sciences Research program. The program's focus on deepening connections among mathematical sciences researchers, educators, and practitioners aligns with the state's priorities. ## Target Outcomes for Wisconsin The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction and the University of Wisconsin System are key state agencies that support mathematical sciences research and education. The state's rural areas, such as those in the Wisconsin-Minnesota border region, face unique challenges in accessing advanced math education and research opportunities. The Grants to Stimulate Interest and Activity in Mathematical Sciences Research program will help address these challenges by supporting projects that: 1. Enhance research collaborations among mathematicians, scientists, and educators. 2. Develop innovative math education programs for students and junior researchers. 3. Foster community engagement in mathematical sciences through public events and outreach activities. By achieving these outcomes, the program will contribute to the state's economic development, particularly in the tech industry, which is a significant sector in cities like Madison and Milwaukee. The program's emphasis on early-career researchers will also help retain talent in the state. Wisconsin Fast Forward grant is one of the state's initiatives that supports workforce development in key areas, including STEM fields. Similarly, the Grants to Stimulate Interest and Activity in Mathematical Sciences Research program will help build a stronger, more diverse pipeline of mathematical sciences researchers and educators in Wisconsin. The program's funding range of $35,000 to $350,000 will support a variety of projects, from small workshops to larger research initiatives. Applicants should be aware that the funder, a banking institution, is particularly interested in projects that demonstrate a clear potential for economic impact in Wisconsin. ## Measuring Success in Wisconsin To measure the program's success in Wisconsin, grantees will be expected to track and report on outcomes such as the number of students and junior researchers engaged, the number of research collaborations formed, and the dissemination of research findings through publications and public events. The state's strong research institutions, including the University of Wisconsin-Madison, will be essential partners in evaluating the program's impact. By supporting research and education in mathematical sciences, the Grants to Stimulate Interest and Activity in Mathematical Sciences Research program will contribute to Wisconsin's economic and educational goals. ## Frequently Asked Questions Q: What types of projects are eligible for funding in Wisconsin? A: Eligible projects include research collaborations, math education programs, and public events that promote mathematical sciences, particularly those that involve early-career researchers and have the potential for economic impact in the state, such as those that might be highlighted at events like the Wisconsin Mathematics Council conferences. Q: Can nonprofits in Wisconsin apply for these grants? A: Yes, nonprofits in Wisconsin that are involved in mathematical sciences research or education are eligible to apply, especially if they are partnering with state institutions or other organizations that can enhance the project's impact, such as those that might be supported by the Wisconsin Arts grants. Q: How can I find more information about the application process for these grants in Wisconsin? A: Applicants can find more information on the funder's website and should also reach out to state agencies, such as the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, for guidance on the application process and to discuss potential partnerships that could strengthen their proposals, particularly those related to the Wisconsin Fast Forward grant initiatives.
