Research Opportunities
Are you interested in graduate school, eager to prepare for a research career, or simply want to explore the cool problems math can solve? Develop research skills and contribute to the Mission of the ACMS Department! Feel free to look through the below opportunities in the ACMS Department and contact Director of Undergraduate Studies, Dr. Alan Huebner, to express your interest and receive guidance on how to find a mentor.
In the near future, an info session will be organized for interested students to engage in this program.
