Navigating Your PhD

Join WiM for a 2-day hands-on workshop for women in math who are pursuing a graduate degree (Masters or PhD) to get better prepared for a successful completion of the program as well as receive guidance and mentorship with regards to career opportunities post-graduation! Our aim is to create a comfortable space that is conducive for healthy discussions and reflections as well as to promote interaction between peers within the Faculty of Mathematics.

Register here before March 23. Please note that attendance is limited to 30 participants in total. Registered participants on a waitlist will be informed if a spot opens up.  

Calling all Undergrad students in Math! Women in Mathematics (WiM) is looking for passionate undergraduate  representatives to join the Women in Mathematics Undergraduates (WiMugrad). The WiM committee advocates to create a diverse and empowering environment for female and gender minority students in the math faculty.

If you’re interested in getting involved, please apply through the google form, or visit the WiM Undergraduate page for more information. Applications will be open until March 22.

The newly launched WiM Directed Reading Program (DRP) initiative aims to provide undergraduate students with the opportunity to work with graduate students on a mathematical project. This project could be an introduction to cutting-edge research, setting up the groundwork for a thesis or research project, or a casual survey of an article that would be intimidating to cover on one’s own.
