YMC 2010

      YMC is an annual undergraduate research conference in mathematics,
    which attracts applications and participants from all over the country
    every year (160 students applied in 2009). For activities in past
years see

                       http://www.ymc.osu.edu

      Undergraduate students involved in REUs and similar programs as
well as
    accompanying mentors are invited to submit applications. As in
previous years
    a panel of several faculty will evaluate submitted research
abstracts. About
    70 student applicants will be selected for participation based on
these reviews.

         Those invited will present their research in talks or with
posters, and will have
     the travel (<$600), lodging, as well as meals covered. Invited
mentors can apply
     for partial support depending on each case.

        We expect most decisions on invitations and support to be
completed around
     August 7th. Invitee will need to make travel arrangements and
submit a confirmation
     immediately after the invitation.

PROGRAM

    Highlights of this year's conference, besides the student
presentations,
    include three distinguished plenary lectures by

           Colin Adams       (Williams College)
           Bryna Kra           (Northwestern University)
           Lauren Williams  (UC Berkeley).

      We will also continue our "Graduate School Orientation" this
year with
    representatives from various different US graduate programs in
mathematics.
    Thus far we have representatives from Arizona State, CUNY Grad Center,
    UC Berkeley, UC Irvine, NC State, Ohio State and hopefully several
more
    who will participate in  the graduate panel discussion and will be
available
    during social events.

PLEASE ADVERTISE

    We ask you to advertise this conference to your students as well
as any
    colleagues of yours who are involved in undergraduate research.
You can
    download a poster of this year's conference in PDF format at

                 http://www.ymc.osu.edu/2010/img/ymc_poster.pdf
.
    Please let us know if we should send you another poster and help
us advertise
    our conference.

JUDGES

    If you are interested in judging submitted abstracts please
contact me. This
    is an excellent opportunity to gain insight in what is done in
undergraduate
    research around the country. Requirements are a PhD in math,
preferably a
    faculty positions, and some time and internet access in the days
following the
    above deadline.

    For any questions and comments please contact us at
