About This Opportunity

As part of the Society's new AMS Explore initiative, the AMS Education Committee invites proposals from current or recent undergraduates for 10-minute paper presentations to be delivered during the AMS-SMT Joint Annual Meeting. AMS Explore is aimed at facilitating the involvement of current and recent undergraduate students in the AMS Annual Meeting. Accepted participants will present their research as part of a symposium consisting of papers given by other members of the AMS Explore cohort. Papers will take the form of 10-minute presentations, followed by a panel discussion and general Q&A. In addition to presenting, participants in the AMS Explore program will be required to participate in cohort activities with peers and members of the AMS Education Committee that better prepare them for conference presentation and help them get as much as possible out of their conference experience. The AMS Explore program is an excellent way for undergraduates and early-career scholars to be introduced to the AMS community, receive constructive feedback on their work, and enjoy a welcoming conference experience. Accepted participants will receive complimentary registration and a $350 grant to defray the cost of travel. Free lodging (with a roommate) in the conference hotel will also be provided.
