Women in Mathematics Directed Reading Program Mentorship (WiM DRP) awards, valued at $1,000, are provided to graduate students registered in the Faculty of Mathematics who lead an interesting reading project on a topic relevant in mathematics. Students must demonstrate sustained commitment to mentoring, and inspiring undergraduate students who participate in WiM DRP. The award recognizes the valuable time and work that mentors invest in helping the mentees throughout the term to develop insight and skills in mathematics. Selection will be made at the end of each term by the WiM committee based on a review of regular reports and end-of-term presentations by the undergraduate mentees as a way of demonstrating that the graduate mentors fulfilled their requirements.
Up to 60 awards per year are available.
