The 26th Nebraska Conference for Undergraduate Women in Mathematics (NCUWM) will be hosted by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln from Jan. 26-28, 2024. The 27th and 28th iterations of the conference will take place in late January or early February in 2025 and 2026, respectively. The mission of this conference is to support undergraduate women mathematics majors who wish to attend graduate school and to help and encourage them to identify possible careers using mathematics. All undergraduates are welcome to apply, regardless of gender identity or expression, race, color, ethnicity, or national origin. NCUWM plays an important role in inspiring undergraduate participants to pursue mathematics and has a positive impact on their professional growth. The conference program includes plenary talks by prominent women mathematicians, three panel discussions, small group conversations focused on a range of topics, and undergraduate research presentations in talk and poster sessions. Various networking opportunities throughout the program connect participants with peers and role models. Held annually since 1999, the conference has grown from 53 undergraduate participants to over 250 each year. In total, more than 5,000 undergraduates have attended NCUWM in its 25-year history. In addition to professional development opportunities, participants learn cutting-edge mathematics from plenary speakers and from one another. Many attendees have conducted independent, original research projects, and the conference program includes a poster session and more than five hours of talks by undergraduate participants scheduled in parallel sessions. The three panel discussions focus on careers in mathematics, choosing a graduate program, and random bits of advice. The design of the conference centers on the research-supported assertion that developing a broad mentoring network can be incredibly important for the recruitment and retention of women in STEM fields, and results of formal evaluations have corroborated the broad impact the conference has had on its participants. The conference webpage is available at https://math.unl.edu/ncuwm/.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

内布拉斯加州本科妇女数学妇女（NCUWM）的第26届会议将于2024年1月26日至28日，内布拉斯加州 - 林肯大学举行。会议的27次和28次迭代将于1月下旬或分别于1月下旬或分别于2025年2月下旬或2026年举行。这次会议的任务是支持希望上研究生院的本科女性数学专业，并鼓励他们使用数学来确定可能的职业。无论性别认同或表达，种族，肤色，种族或国籍如何，都欢迎所有本科生应用。 NCUWM在激发大学参与者追求数学并对他们的职业发展产生积极影响方面发挥着重要作用。会议计划包括著名女性数学家的全体会谈，三个小组讨论，小组对话的重点是一系列主题，以及在谈话和海报会议上的本科研究演讲。整个计划中的各种网络机会将参与者与同行和榜样联系起来。自1999年以来每年举行的会议从53名本科参与者增长到每年250多个。总共有5,000多名本科生在其25年的历史上参加了NCUWM。除了专业发展机会外，参与者还从全体演讲者和彼此学习了尖端数学。许多与会者进行了独立的原创研究项目，会议计划包括一项海报会议，并在本科参与者进行了五个多小时的会谈。这三个小组讨论的重点是数学职业，选择研究生课程以及随机建议。关于研究支持的主张的会议中心的设计，即建立广泛的指导网络对于招募和保留妇女在STEM领域中至关重要，并且正式评估的结果证实了会议对参与者的广泛影响。会议网页可在https://math.unl.edu/ncuwm/.this奖中获得，反映了NSF的法定任务，并且使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估。
