Complimentary T-shirt and socks with your NCUWM registration!
Registration closes in two weeks for the 24th annual Nebraska Conference for Undergraduate Women in Mathematics (NCUWM) online January 21-23, 2022. The $20 registration fee gets you a complimentary NCUWM T-shirt and pair of socks (see image attached), shipped directly to you!
Students and faculty are invited to complete a registration online, by Friday, Dec. 3, 2021. Applications from students interested in presenting (a talk or a poster) at the 2022 conference will be accepted until all spots are filled. Learn more at: https://math.unl.edu/ncuwm.
In this virtual format, there is no limit on the number of students who can attend from each school!
We are pleased to announce that the 2022 conference features these three distinguished plenary speakers:
- Dr. Joan Ferrini-Mundy, University of Maine: President; Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation for the University of Maine System
- Dr. Pamela E. Harris, Williams College: Associate Professor in Department of Mathematics and Statistics; Cohost of podcast “Mathematically Uncensored”; Co-founder of Lathisms
- Dr. Talithia Williams, Harvey Mudd College: Associate Professor of Mathematics; Author of “Power in Numbers: The Rebel Women of Mathematics”
Read their biographies. Invited panelists and graduate students are also listed on the website.
Women, and particularly women of color, are underrepresented in the mathematical sciences, especially among jobs that require graduate education. We at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) recognize the need to encourage and mentor undergraduate women in mathematics to pursue graduate study in mathematics and to seek mathematical careers. We do this by annually hosting the NCUWM, made possible with generous support from the National Science Foundation and the National Security Agency, for undergraduates that provides role models, insider knowledge, opportunities to present undergraduate research, and a growing community of peers interested in issues related to creating a supportive environment for women in mathematics.
Attached is a poster advertising the conference. Please forward and share with any interested colleagues.
