Undergraduate Research

Conferences Where Undergraduates Can Present Research

• Math Fest: The Mathematical Association of America sponsors Math Fest every summer. Student paper submissions are welcomed.

• RUMC: Regional Undergraduate Mathematics Conferences. Through the NSF, the MAA is able to offer funding to institutions so that they may hold regional conferences for undergraduates to present their work.

• Joint Math Meetings: These national meetings are annually held by the AMS and MAA in early January. The event includes exhibits, courses, social events, and networking and employment opportunities.

• Pi Mu Epsilon Regional Conferences: Pi Mu Epsilon holds a regional conference in the fall at St. Norbert College link in De Pere, WI, and in the spring at St. Johns University link in Collegeville, MN, near St. Cloud.

• Nebraska Conference for Undergraduate Women in Mathematics: The University of Nebraska-Lincoln holds an annual conference geared toward undergraduate women in mathematics.

REU: Research Experience for Undergraduates

• NSF Sponsored REUs: The National Science foundation sponsors research at colleges and universities. Here is a list of schools currently receiving funding for REU programs from the NSF.

• Summer Research at St. Olaf: What more could you ask for?

Journals That Publish Undergraduate Research

• Involve - A Journal of Mathematics: Involve publishes original, scholarly papers written by students at any level.

• Rose-Hulman Undergraduate Mathematics Journal: This journal publishes research that has been done by undergraduate students in an area related to mathematics.

• Pi Mu Epsilon Journal: Papers available here are written by or for undergraduates.

• SIAM SIAM is a online journal that publishes undergraduate research in all areas of applied and computational mathematics.

• Furman University Electronic Journal of Undergraduate Mathematics: Papers written by undergraduates.

• Morehead Electronic Journal of Applicable Mathematics: These papers are not typical undergraduate papers. They accept papers that are rather mathematical and show interdisciplinary and applied topics.

• The Official Journal of Kappa Mu Epsilon: This group publishes "outstanding" papers by undergraduate students.

• At St. Olaf: Professor Jill Dietz edits an in-house volume of research articles submitted by math students every year.
