Undergraduate Math Club

The undergraduate math club is a place for students to explore a variety of mathematical concepts in fun, approachable ways. Our meetings are an hour long and involve math-related activities, a talk from a guest speaker, and snacks. More details about each upcoming meeting are provided below. We welcome students of all different backgrounds and there are no prerequisite courses for joining. If you’d like to meet other students in the department or get a taste of what graduate-level math looks like, give math club a try! We’re always excited to welcome new members.
