SUnMaRC 2013

Southwest Undergraduate Mathematics Research Conference

The 10th Southwest Undergraduate Mathematics Research Conference, SUnMaRC '13, was held on March 1-March 3, 2013, in Albuquerque, NM, hosted by the University of New Mexico. This conference series provides students an opportunity to see what math research can be about, to meet other students throughout the Southwest with similar interests, to explore possibilities for graduate studies, and, for those that have already been working on a research project, to present their work. A total of 105 participants attended the conference, coming from ASU (30), MCC (6), NAU (10), Princeton (1), Sandia National Laboratories (1), Tutonic (1), UA (11), UMich (1), UNM (38), WNMU (6). 40 students gave great talks talks on their research program. We saw other interesting talks by invited speakers, ranging from meteorite impact and scientific computing to math education and averaging. See the full conference program. The conference was sponsored by an NSF-MCTP grant to UNM 2012-2016. Some impressions are given below.
