Future is Now. HBCU/ONR (Historically Black Colleges and Universities/Office of Naval Research) Planning Workshop, Mathematical Sciences Division Held in Washington, DC on October 28-29, 1985

摘要

This workshop was developed in response to a perceived need by the Office of Federal Affairs, Howard University, for a more structured approach to the determination of mathematical sciences interest and capability within the Historically Black College and University(HBCU) community which can be utilized by the Office of Naval Research. That need was expressed to be Mathematical Sciences Division in January, 1985. Those discussions subsequently resulted in a planning grant which has as its goal the exchange of information between ONR and the HBCUs adequate enough to result in an increased number and focus of grant/contract proposals from the HBCUs.
