About the event:

Join us for our annual Women in Mathematics event, Tuesday 5th – Wednesday 6th November 2019 - open to female and non-binary students in the UK and Ireland. 
 A PhD in mathematics can offer you independence, challenging problems and an inspiring job, as well as the chance to travel and the opportunity to make a difference. 

This two-day event is aimed at encouraging women and non-binary people to consider continuing their studies to PhD level.  

The event features talks from mathematicians working both in universities and industry, giving insight into their current roles and their careers to date. Even more importantly, there is ample time to talk in small groups to the other participants who are facing the same decisions, and to current PhD students who have recently faced the same questions. It will be an opportunity to discuss your motivations as well as your concerns, and specifically to identify and seek to address any concerns related to gender identity. 

The Wednesday afternoon session is open to all students and will more broadly address the nature of PhD research, the work environment, the application process, and career options. It will also provide an opportunity to discuss issues and concerns around PhD study.
