Wolfram Research, Inc. announces that applications are now being
accepted for the 2001-02 Mathematica Visiting Scholar Grant
Program. Since 1995, this program has provided researchers,
scientists, and developers the opportunity to collaborate with the
Wolfram Research team on Mathematica-related projects. A list of
recent visiting scholars can be found at 
http://www.wolfram.com/company/programs/vsgrant/vsrecipients.html. 

Visiting Scholar Grants are awarded to professionals working on
projects that have research or commercial value and the potential
to make a dramatic impact in the applicants? chosen fields.
Communities that may benefit from participation in the Visiting
Scholar Grant Program include engineering, finance, physics,
mathematics, and other specialized groups. 

This year we would especially like to encourage projects that
utilize webMathematica and J/Link, but we will also consider
projects such as the following. 
 * Application packages 
 * High school and/or college courseware 
 * Mathematica-related books and textbooks 
 * Significant contributions to the MathSource library of Mathematica software 
 * Other Mathematica-related projects 

Grant recipients are invited to spend up to eight weeks at Wolfram 
Research's corporate headquarters in Champaign, Illinois, to work 
toward the completion of their projects. During this time,
visiting scholars have the opportunity to consult directly with
Wolfram Research staff. 

Wolfram Research provides a fellowship to cover most travel
expenses and offers living arrangements, office space, and the use
of a Windows, Linux, or Macintosh computer during the visit. Each
grant recipient also receives a current copy of the Mathematica
software package on the recipient's platform of choice. 

The deadline for applications for the 2001-02 Mathematica Visiting 
Scholar Grant Program is March 1, 2001. Each recipient's visit
must be completed by March 29, 2002.
