- 12/4/09: NEBRASKA CONFERENCE FOR UNDERGRADUATE WOMEN IN MATHEMATICS
The Twelfth Annual Nebraska Conference for Undergraduate Women in
Mathematics will be on January 29-31, 2010, at the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln. It will bring together outstanding undergraduate
women mathematicians from across the country and is open to undergraduate
women mathematicians at all stages of their careers. Those who have
already done research can present their results as either a talk or a poster.
Two leading mathematicians, Bryna Kra and Karen Vogtmann, will give
plenary addresses. In addition to the mathematical program, there will
be information about undergraduate research, graduate programs, fellowships,
and careers in mathematics. About 200 undergraduates have attended each of
the past several years and between 35 and 50 have presented their research.
The website has more information about the conference and registration.
The conference covers local expenses (lodging and most meals) for all
undergraduate women participants. Some participants' travel costs can
be covered, when participants' home institutions are not able to do so.
Spaces will be filled on
a first come basis and registration has closed early in some years, so register early. The conference is funded by grants from the
National Science Foundation and the National Security Agency.
- 2/5/10: MATH FOR AMERICA - APPLY NOW.
Math for America’s 2010 Fellowship application is open for New York City, Los Angeles, San Diego and Washington, DC. The Math for America Fellowship provides aspiring math teachers a full tuition scholarship for a master’s degree in mathematics education, stipends of up to $100,000 over five years, in addition to a full time teacher’s salary, and mentoring, leadership and professional development opportunities. The application deadline is FEBRUARY 5, 2010. To learn more about our program, visit www.mathforamerica.org.
- 2/26/10: MOODY'S MEGA MATH CHALLENGE - INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE
Want to know if the stimulus act will work or whether ethanol is the right choice for U.S. energy independence? Need advice on how to beat Wall Street? If so, you may want to consult a high school student! These are topics that have been tackled in past Moody’s Mega Math Challenge competitions, where teams of students are given 14 hours to solve an open-ended, realistic, applied math-modeling problem focused on real-world issues, and are able to use any free, publicly available, and inanimate sources of information to help them. Registration is now open for the 2010 M3 Challenge, which will be held during the weekend of March 6-7, and the final deadline is FEBRUARY 26, 2010. The Challenge has expanded this year to include high schools along the entire East Coast, from Maine to Florida. Scholarship prizes have also increased—US$100,000 will be awarded in 2010. There are no entrance or participation fees and each high school may enter up to two teams of three to five students each. Each year’s topic is entirely unknown until teams download the problem at 7:00 a.m. on their selected Challenge day. They have until 9:00 p.m. that same night to research the problem, formulate assumptions, develop and test a model, analyze their findings, and summarize their response in a solution paper, which they upload to the Challenge website. The goal of this annual and entirely Internet-based Challenge is to increase interest in and encourage high school students to pursue studies and careers in applied mathematics, economics, and finance. Learn more about the M3 Challenge.
- 3/3/10: DAVIDSON FELLOW SCHOLARSHIPS. Students under 18 (as of October 1, 2010) working on a graduate-level project can apply for the 2010 Davidson Fellow Scholarships. The deadline is MARCH 3, 2010.
- 4/1/10 and 5/30/10: ASA POSTER AND PROJECT COMPETITION. Teachers and students are encouraged to submit posters and/or projects for the 2010 competitions sponsored by the American Statistical Association. K–12 Posters are due April 1.

with various deadlines.
- SIAM STUDENTS TRAVEL GRANTS. The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) provides travel grants of US$500 to support student travel to 2008 SIAM Conferences and Annual Meeting. Top priority will be given to students who are presenting papers at the conference or meeting, with second priority to students who are co-authors of papers to be presented at the meeting. Complete applications must be received at the SIAM office no later than two months before the first day of the meeting for which support is requested. See the website for more information including the list of 2008 conferences and meetings and required application materials.
- Ongoing. SIAM Undergraduate Research Online (SIURO) is a web-based publication devoted to undergraduate research in applied and computational mathematics. Topics include analysis, discrete mathematics, statistics, operations research, optimization, dynamical systems, modeling, and computation. Papers written by undergraduate students (or teams of students) are being accepted on an ongoing basis and will be posted online as they are accepted. The SIURO web site lists the editorial board and has instructions for authors, review policies, etc.
FOR POSTDOCS:
- 10/1/09: NSF-AWM TRAVEL GRANTS. The NSF-AWM Travel Grants program enables women to attend research conferences in
their fields, thereby providing a valuable opportunity to advance their
research activities and their visibility in the research community. The
grants provide full or partial support for travel and subsistence for a
meeting or conference in the applicant's field of specialization. A
maximum of US$1,500 for domestic travel and US$2,000 for foreign travel will be
available. Women must hold a doctorate (or equivalent experience) and
have a work address in the US (or US home address, in case of unemployed
mathematicians). There are three award periods per year.
