Focus

The Conference on Innovation in Undergraduate Research and Teaching will address the following related themes in the mathematical sciences:

  • inclusion of members of underrepresented groups in research,
  • research by undergraduates,
  • innovations in teaching, including projects, labs and computing

A principal objective of the conference is to serve as a gateway to the mathematical sciences research community for the undergraduate participants. By participating in the conference, the students will gain a concrete understanding of the possibilities for continuing careers in mathematical sciences research and will interact personally with a diverse group of successful researchers.

How students can participate

  • Present your research as a poster
    Deadline for poster abstracts: May 23.
