Student research conference

The Department of Mathematics recognises the importance of student scholarly work. The Student Research Conference is an opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to present the research they have conducted, to share it with other students and faculty, and receive feedback.

We invite proposals in pure mathematics, applied mathematics and mathematics education. Students at all academic levels may present their scholarly work at the conference. There will be three prizes of $500 each.
