Mathematics Continued Conference

Aurora: Powered by WordPress

Join the "Mathematics Continued Conference: a Research Conference for Undergraduates" at UConn on October 22nd, 2022. The main goal of the conference is to give undergraduate students interested in math an idea of what graduate school may be like and to showcase some current research done by grad students and faculty members. The talks will be given at the level of a junior or senior level undergraduate. We will also host a poster session for undergraduate students to display their research.

This year plenary speakers are: Karen Lange (Wellesley) and Fabiana Cardetti (UConn).

You must register for the event to attend. The registration is free but mandatory.
