Young Mathematicians Conference

青年数学家会议是参与REU数学课程的学生在三天的课程中展示他们的研究成果的机会。来自美国各地的约70名学生被邀请报告约50个项目。邀请是有竞争力的，并基于由教师评审小组对摘要的审查。此外，会议还邀请了十几位导师交流指导本科生研究的想法和经验。此外，来自美国各机构的数学研究生课程的大约相同数量的代表被邀请在公开论坛和个人对话中分享他们对数学研究生学习的观点和见解。每场会议的亮点是由高度成就的研究人员和教师，谁向学生介绍先进的，创新的和令人兴奋的数学主题三个全体会议讲座。过去的演讲者包括着名的麦克阿瑟和斯隆奖学金，波利亚和Nevanlinna奖，以及Haimo，Chauvenet和Allendoerfer奖的获奖者。活动时间表强烈鼓励学生研究人员与同龄人以及高级数学家的讨论和互动。会议的主要目标之一是引导有才华的学生从最初的数学研究经验走向研究数学家的职业生涯。YMC系列始于2003年，此后每年（2008年除外）都在8月举行。

The Young Mathematicians Conference is an opportunity for students involved in REU programs in mathematics to present their research results in talks and posters presentations over the course of three days. Approximately 70 students from all parts of the US are invited to report on about 50 projects. Invitations are competitive and based on the review of abstracts by a panel of faculty reviewers. In addition the conference invites around a dozen mentors to exchange ideas and experiences in supervising undergraduate research. Moreover, about the same number representatives from graduate programs in mathematics from a variety of US institutions are invited to share their perspectives and insights about graduate studies in mathematics in open forums and individual conversations. Highlights of every conference are three plenary lectures by highly accomplished researchers and teachers, who introduce students to advanced, innovative, and exciting topics in mathematics. Speakers in the past included recipients of prestigious MacArthur and Sloan Fellowships, Pólya and Nevanlinna Prizes, as well as of the Haimo, Chauvenet, and Allendoerfer Awards for excellence in exposition and teaching. The event schedule strongly encourages discussions and interactions of students researchers with their peers as well as senior mathematicians. One of the main goals of the conference is to guide talented students from an initial research experience in mathematics towards a career as research mathematicians. The YMC series was started in 2003 and was held in every year since then (except for 2008) during the month of August.
