Join WiM on February 28, 2023, for a 45 Minute talk with Professor Matilde Lalín followed by a Q&A session and refreshments.
Register today to attend the WiM Winter Colloquium 2023.
This event is open to all students and other members of the faculty of mathematics and their friends.
The faculty is now the first Faculty of Mathematics to hold Sponsoring Institutional Membership of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM).
AWM encourages women and girls to study and to have active careers in the mathematical sciences, and to promote equal opportunity and the equal treatment of women and girls in the mathematical sciences.
Coming to the University of Waterloo this fall is the play Truth Values: One Girl’s Romp Through M.I.T.’s Male Math Maze, written and performed by former mathematician Gioia De Cari. She experienced first-hand the difficulties and inequities of being a professional woman in a male-dominated field and now uses her one-woman show to provide a humorous, scathing, insightful, and ultimately uplifting look at the challenges she and many other women face in STEM fields.
Following the play, join Gioia and panellists for a discussion on Women in STEM fields, the progress that has been made, and how we can continue to push towards greater equity, diversity, and inclusion for all people. This is a free event open to the entire University of Waterloo community. All are encouraged to come see this incredible performance and engage in the conversation.
In celebration of International Women in Math Day, the Women in Math Committee presents Picnic & Paint. Join us for an afternoon picnic and paint session to enjoy some refreshments, socialize and engage in meaningful discussion.
The new WiM Directed Reading Program (DRP) initiative aims to provide undergraduate students the opportunity to work with a graduate student 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.
Join us for a panel discussion focused on understanding and promoting equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in academic settings. All members of our academic communities should strive to create equitable, diverse, and inclusive environments.
Women in Math (WIM) invites you to celebrate International Women’s Day on March 8th, 2022, at 1 P.M. Join us for refreshments at the UW Egg fountain followed by a scenic group walk. All are welcome to join. The walk begins at 1:30 p.m.
Join WiM for a 45 Minute talk with Professor Grace Y. Yi and a Q&A session to follow.
