Description:
------------

This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will introduce
undergraduate faculty to research opportunities in several fields of
mathematics that will equip them with the tools to mentor students in
undergraduate research in mathematics. Lectures at the workshop
will provide background information and introduce open problems.
The majority of the workshop will be spent working on problems,
reporting on progress, and formulating plans for future work. 

The workshop is organized by
Brianna Donaldson, Leslie Hogben, and Ulrica Wilson.

Space and funding is available for a few more participants.
If you would like to participate, please apply by filling
out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later
than March 1, 2016. Applications are open to all, and
we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities,
junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily
undergraduate institutions to apply.

AIM Research Conference Center:
--------------------------------

The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused
workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM
focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on
a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a
significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an
important new result, or investigating the convergence between
two distinct areas of mathematics.
