About Us

The mission of the University of Rochester Chapter of the AMS is informed by the objectives of the American Mathematical Society (AMS). To wit, the chapter seeks to further the interests of mathematical scholarship and research, to create an inclusive community among graduate students that welcomes and supports students coming from different cultures and backgrounds, to encourage graduate students to talk about their research more publicly and explain their research outside of academia, to create bonds with graduate students studying related fields in other departments and stay updated with current related research topics outside of pure mathematics, to increase awareness of career opportunities and help mathematics graduate students broaden their career goals, and to provide and make available tools and resources that graduate students might need in their future careers.
