Mathematics Research Recruiting Fair

Mathematics Research Recruiting Fair

Are you interested in summer research opportunities in applied mathematics, computational mathematics, or mathematical modeling? Come to the Mathematics Research Recruiting Fair to meet with faculty members who are interested in hiring graduate and undergraduate researchers. Each faculty member will be in their own breakout room, students will be able to drop in to learn more about the research projects they have available.
