Welcome to the Association for Women in Mathematics! The purpose of the Association for Women in Mathematics is to encourage women and girls to study and to have active careers in the mathematical sciences, and to promote equal opportunity and the equal treatment of women and girls in the mathematical sciences. Have fun investigating our web pages! - Georgia Benkart, President of the AWM

Announcements...

  • Women in Mathematics Symposium 2011 - The Women in Mathematics Symposium 2011 presented by the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics is a forum for encouraging and supporting women preparing for and embarking on mathematical careers. The Symposium will be held February 24-26,2011 at IPAM. There is funding to support the attendance of women in the mathematical sciences at the early stages of their careers. For more information and application, go to http://www.ipam.ucla.edu/programs/wim2011/. (deadline: Jan. 3, 2011).
  • AWM President-Elect, Jill Pipher, to lead new mathematics institute - Brown University has been awarded $15.5 million to create a national mathematics research institute. The Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics is the eighth math institute in the United States funded by the National Science Foundation and the only one of its kind in New England. The institute will bring in leading scholars from around the world to explore the frontier of mathematics and computation. Read more about it here.
  • The Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) and the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) are pleased to announce that Ami Radunskaya will deliver the Falconer Lecture at the MathFest 2010 in Pittsburgh. Radunskaya is a Professor of Mathematics at Pomona College in Claremont, California and a member of the AWM Executive Committee. Her lecture on the Mathematical challenges in the treatment of cancer will be on Friday August 6, 2010.
  • AWM Workshop at JMM 2011 - The AWM Workshop for Women Graduate Students and Recent PhDs will be held in conjunction with the 2011 Joint Mathematics Meetings, New Orleans, LA. The deadline for applications is Sunday, August 15, 2010. Application instructions are available at http://www.awm-math.org/workshops.html. For Questions: Contact the AWM office at 703-934-0163 or awm@awm-math.org
  • Sonia Kovalevsky High School and Middle School Mathematics Days - Through a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Association for Women in Mathematics expects to support Sonia Kovalevsky High School and Middle School Mathematics Days at colleges and universities throughout the country. The purposes are to encourage young women to continue their study of mathematics, to assist them with the sometimes difficult transitions between middle school and high school mathematics and between high school and college mathematics, to assist the teachers of women mathematics students, and to encourage colleges and universities to develop more extensive cooperation with middle schools and high schools in their area. AWM awards grants ranging on average from $1500 to $2200 each ($3000 maximum) to universities and colleges. Applications must be received by August 4, 2010.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: Please note that the AWM-SIAM Sonia Kovalevsky Lecture nomination deadline is September 15, 2010, not November 1st as printed in the July/August issue of the AWM newsletter.
  • The Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) has named Cammey Cole Manning as its workshop director. Manning is an associate professor of mathematics at Meredith College. She will combine her duties there with her new position at AWM. In her new position, Manning will oversee AWM’s successful workshop programs by coordinating with the workshop committees and the AWM Executive Committee.
