Scientific Overview

The Indian Women and Mathematics Symposium 2012 is a forum for encouraging and supporting women in mathematical careers. It will provide a venue for recent Ph.D.s to present their research. There will be invited talks and panel discussions featuring accomplished women mathematicians. Junior women will have many opportunities to interact with their senior colleagues, both individually and in small groups.

A major goal of the symposium is to expose undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral scholars to a wide range of career possibilities and experiences in academia, business, and industry. There will be presentations and discussion fora addressing this aspect, including an afternoon devoted to presentations on, mathematics, statistics and the financial world. The information and the opportunity to establish contacts by the participants in the symposium will foster connections between generations of women who pursue careers in a broad spectrum of areas linked by the beauty and utility of mathematics.
