Please be advised that the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) includes
revised guidelines to implement the mentoring provisions of the America COMPETES Act (ACA)
(Pub. L. No. 110-69, Aug. 9, 2007.) As specified in the ACA, each proposal that requests
funding to support postdoctoral researchers must include a description of the mentoring
activities that will be provided for such individuals. Proposals that do not comply
with this requirement will be returned without review (see the PAPP Guide Part I:
Grant Proposal Guide Chapter II for further information about the implementation of
this new requirement).

SYNOPSIS
![](https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/eot2008/20090508130138im_/http://nsf.gov/images/bluefade.jpg)
The purposes of the Collaboration in Mathematical Geoscience activity are: (A) [Interdisciplinary Group Research Projects] to enable collaborative research at the intersection of mathematical sciences and geosciences, and to encourage cross-disciplinary education through (B) [Interdisciplinary Post-graduate Summer Training] summer graduate training activities and (C) [Interdisciplinary Post-doctoral Research] opportunities for interdisciplinary post-doctoral research. Research topics under (A) should fall within one of three broad themes: (1) mathematical and statistical modeling of large, complex geosystems, (2) representing uncertainty in geosystems, or (3) analyzing large geoscience data sets. Research projects supported under this activity must be essentially collaborative in nature. Research groups must include at least one mathematical scientist and at least one geoscientist.

This program provides educational opportunities for
Graduate Students
.
From time to time, this program may provide support to institutions to organize interdisciplinary summer schools in mathematical geosciences for graduate students. To inquire about opportunities to participate in these schools, contact one of the awarded institutions. These may be identified by clicking on the Awards link and looking for award titles that begin, "CMG TRAINING" or "CMG COLLABORATIVE TRAINING".
