NCUWM is the Nebraska Conference for Undergraduate Women in Math which, well, is exactly what it sounds like. This coming January the University of Nebraska is hosting their 14th annual conference for undergraduate women interested in math.
In 2010 and in 2011 the OU math department sponsored a van-load of OU women undergrads to go the conference. And they want to do it again! All expenses paid, of course!
Even though the conference isn’t until January, the registration happens in October and it fills fast! If you are interested, you should talk or email Dr. Schmidt. He’s the one organizing things this year. If you’re thinking about it, you should talk to him ASAP as we have it on good authority that there are already 6 women planning to go and seating is limited!
If you want to hear about what it’s like from the students’ who went last year, read all about it here. Or just go ask Michelle Basham or Edwina Shwewa, and they’ll tell you all the reasons you should definitely go.
We’ll just add one: This year’s plenary speakers are the most excellent Dr. Sara Billey from U of Washington, and Dr. Ingrid Daubechies of Duke University.
