1) Count me in (Edinburgh)
2) Summer Research Programme for Undergraduates from Underrepresented Groups (Warwick).
Both programmes will offer opportunities for undergraduates to conduct research in small groups, guided by faculty and PhD student mentors, together with academic and social activities. The aim is to show women and non-binary people, members of under-represented ethnic minorities in mathematics, people from a challenging socioeconomic background and people with a disability, what it is like to do mathematics research. We aim to create an experience which is inclusive and relaxed, where student researchers can focus on the joy of mathematical creativity and discovery in a supportive and stimulating environment, alongside a cohort of peers and mentors. We will emphasize collaboration and learning over competition and performance.
