Conference: Young Mathematicians Conference

青年数学家会议(YMC)是在俄亥俄州立大学举办的一年一度的本科生研究会议。我们不同的被录取的本科生群体(通常从40到65人)是从竞争性的申请过程中挑选出来的，被邀请的参与者可以获得参加会议的旅费和住宿支持。除了高质量的学生报告和海报会议，YMC还有来自不同获奖数学家群体的全体演讲者。过去的演讲者包括菲尔兹奖章、麦克阿瑟和斯隆奖学金、波利亚和纳瓦林纳奖，以及海莫、肖弗内和艾伦多费尔奖，以表彰其在博览会和教学方面的卓越表现。参与者还有机会(并强烈鼓励)参加研究生院的小组讨论，在那里他们会见了几个数学博士项目的代表。在小组讨论中，学生可以就研究生院的申请程序、介绍计划的细节以及如何整合具有竞争力的研究生院的申请提出建议。YMC也是选定的教师导师和REU主管交流最佳实践、资金/支持机会和讨论REU项目当代挑战的聚集地。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Young Mathematicians Conference (YMC) is an annual undergraduate research conference hosted at the Ohio State University. Our diverse group of accepted undergraduate students (typically numbered from 40–65) are selected from a competitive application process and invited participants receive travel and lodging support to attend the conference. In addition to the high quality student presentations and poster sessions, the YMC also has plenary speakers from a diverse group of award winning mathematicians. Speakers in the past included recipients of the Fields Medal, the MacArthur and Sloan Fellowships, Pólya and Nevanlinna Prizes, as well as of the Haimo, Chauvenet, and Allendoerfer Awards for excellence in exposition and teaching. Participants also have the opportunity (and are strongly encouraged) to attend the Graduate School panel where they meet representatives from several math PhD programs. During the panel, students can ask questions regarding graduate school application process, particulars of the presenting program, and advice on putting together a competitive graduate school applications. YMC is also a gathering spot for selected faculty mentors and REU supervisors to exchange best practices,funding/support opportunities, and discussion of contemporary challenges in running REU programs.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.
