	Clay Mathematics Institute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI) is a private, non-profit foundation, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
		The Institute is run according to a standard structure comprising a board of directors that decides on grant-awarding and research proposals, and a scientific advisory committee that oversees and approves the board's decisions.
		As of May, 2006, the board is integrated by members of the Clay family (including Landon Clay), whereas the advisory committee is composed of leading authorities in mathematics, namely Sir Andrew Wiles, Yum-Tong Siu, Richard Melrose, Gregory Margulis, Simon Donaldson and James Carlson.

	Talk:Clay Mathematics Institute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although there is a close link, the institute itself is clearly distinct from the establishment of the problems, which is why I think that the redirect from MMP to CMI is silly.
		The millenium prize problems can be discussed at leisure in more detail in such a new article, whilst this article should keep the current section title 'The Millenium Prize Problems' and briefly discuss the fact that there are these seven problems and their significance, but have a main article link to the MMP article.
		It's a good point that the prizes and institute are separate; however, I don't see the need for the problems to be discussed in more detail.

		The Clay Mathematics Institute presented the CMI-IMO Award to the four perfect scorers in the 2001 IMO: Liang Xiao and Zhiqiang Zhang from China, and Reid Barton and Gabriel Carroll from the United States.
		She urged the mathematical community and the media to play a part in achieving these goals: "All of us are ambassadors for mathematics." Then the world's present and future ambassadors of mathematics--the teens from the first-place Chinese and second-place Russian and U.S. teams--were introduced and their photographs were taken.
		They acknowledged that the scientists in these fields are using the specialized language of mathematics, and that the goals are to better educate students in mathematics so that they may become the scientists of the future, and to better communicate to the general public these applications of math.

		In particular, EDC in partnership with the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, conducts five full-day workshops during the academic year with a focus on pedagogy and connecting the immersion experience in mathematics back to the classroom.
		The courses explore the fundamental mathematics on a topic that is rooted at the secondary level but related to the mathematical theme of the Institute.
		The focus of this strand is entirely on mathematics, although opportunity is provided within the course for reflection on the approach used by the instructors and to consider the implications of such an approach for teaching in secondary classrooms.
