Women and Non-Binary People in Mathematics Day

Introduction

Funded by the Committee for Women and Diversity in Mathematics and hosted externally, Women and Non-Binary People in Mathematics Days are annual events for women (including trans women) and non-binary people in mathematics to meet for a day of talks and discussion groups. The talks are given by women and non-binary mathematicians from a range of disciplines, who are at various stages in their careers.

The events are aimed at postgraduates, final-year undergraduates and those at an early stage in their career, and are an opportunity to meet and talk with women and non-binary people who are active and successful in mathematics. Talks may be research-focused or be around topics such as career development, or be a mixture of the two. Although the events are focused around women (including trans women) and non-binary people, all should be welcome and encouraged to attend. 

Individuals or groups interested in organising and hosting a Women and Non-Binary People in Mathematics Day may submit a grant application. The maximum grant per organiser is £1,000 and usually two grants are awarded each academic year.
