The National Science Foundation has contracted with the National Academy of Sciences for a broad survey to determine the nature and extent of research and of teaching in applied mathematics in the United States. The survey, to be carried out with the cooperation of the Office of Naval Research, the Office of Ordnance Research of the Army, and the Office of Scientific Research of the Air Force, is expected to take one year. As part of the study, a conference on training and research needs in applied mathematics will be held during the spring of 1953 to consider the findings of the survey and to examine the future of research and teaching in the field. Data and recommendations of the survey and the conference will be made available to all agencies.
