Research Training Groups in the Mathematical Sciences

The Research Training Groups in the Mathematical Sciences (RTG) program aims to strengthen the nation's scientific competitiveness by increasing the number of well-prepared U.S. citizens, nationals, and permanent residents who pursue careers in the mathematical sciences. The program supports efforts to improve graduate student research training and professional development through structured groups pursuing collaborative research. The RTG program invites submissions in all fields within mathematical sciences, with a focus on emerging areas such as Artificial Intelligence, Biotechnology, Quantum Computing, and Cybersecurity. Key aspects of the program include: * Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) accredited in the US can submit proposals on behalf of their faculty members * The lead institution must grant a doctoral degree in mathematical sciences for collaborative projects * At least two and no more than eleven additional senior/key personnel are required for project activities and management * Participating trainees must be citizens, nationals, or permanent residents of the United States or its territories and possessions
