CURM

The Center for Undergraduate Research in Mathematics (CURM) at Brigham Young University (BYU) promotes undergraduate research in mathematics throughout the United States by:

1. training professors as mentors for undergraduate research projects;
2. providing funds to professors to establish undergraduate student research groups at their own institution during the academic year;
3. advising professors on how to organize and continue to operate undergraduate research groups at their own institution; and
4. preparing undergraduate students to succeed in graduate studies in mathematics.

To help achieve these objectives, CURM awards mini-grants each year to professors at various institutions across the United States to assist them financially, instructionally, and organizationally in operating successful undergraduate research groups at their own institutions during the academic year. We have a special emphasis on targeting women and participants from undergraduate institutions (i.e., institutions that do not offer PhD's in mathematics). CURM is funded by BYU and a grant from NSF (Award #: DMS – 0636648).
