The first annual UMaRch Conference Puerto Rico will be hosted by the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez (UPRM), on February 27, 2015. Registration is open to participants from schools and institutes of higher learning from all over the island. It is a one-day conference held on the same day as SIDIM XXX, before the latter starts. SIDIM XXX also will be hosted at UPRM. In this way undergraduate students will have the opportunity to interact with local and visiting faculty.

Visiting faculty will have also the opportunity to recruit students for their REUs, undergraduate conferences, etc. The main purpose of this activity is to establish the month of March as one of mathematical awareness on the island, starting with UMaRch, followed by SIDIM and continued locally in all the mathematical centers throughout the island.

RESEARCH CONFERENCE

SIMONS FOUNDATION

AT UMaRch 2015 PUERTO RICO:

Students will present 15-minute talks explaining their research.

All categories of research dealing with solving mathematical problems are encouraged, including original research in pure and applied mathematics, mathematics education, mathematical problems rising from real life (physics, biology, engineering) and even interesting problems from class or independent study.

Invited speakers will give presentations about undergraduate research opportunities in their field.

Representatives from Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REUs) programs from Harvard, Illinois-Urbana, Iowa State and Southern Methodist universities will be present in UMaRch 2015.

Students will have the opportunity to interact with participating faculty and graduate students, opening doors to conversations about real experiences and expectations in mathematics research.
