International Undergraduate and Graduate Mathematics, Interdisciplinary Research, and Project Conference
📅 August 8–9, 2026 (Online)
This international conference provides undergraduate and graduate students with an opportunity to present research projects, thesis work, mathematical investigations, interdisciplinary research, engineering and science projects, and innovative ideas before an international audience in a friendly, supportive, and encouraging environment.
Conference Information
_____________________________________
Join us for the inaugural FLAG where regional mathematicians will meet annually to network, present, and discuss recent trends in analysis!
Here you will find the first of a yearly gathering of mathematicians aimed at fostering in-person interactions between grad students, postdocs and early career researchers with more established regional faculty as well with a focus on complex analysis and operator theory.
Registration is free and anyone interested is more than welcome to attend!
If you are interested in presenting in a parallel session, please click here to submit a title and abstract. Abstract submission deadline is September 1st. Don't forget to register as well!

The Department of Mathematical Sciences will host our 15th Annual AMC8 Middle School Math Day on Saturday, January 24, 2026. This year, there will be a limit of 100 participants with a parent or teacher. Please note that may be paper-and-pencil version or a computerized version of the AMC8, but emails are needed for all attendees. Students may be taken to a computer lab for the AMC8 contest.
The program will begin with the AMC-8 Competition , a contest sponsored by the Mathematical Association of America, followed by a Mathematical Talk for all by Dr. Dipayan Das, titled, "A gentle introduction to Cryptography."
Lunch and our Team Contest, led by Dr. Veronika Kuchta.
High scoring students will be encouraged to participate in the AMC 10 Contest in November 2026.
An tentative schedule appears below:
Scheduled Place: College of Science Building (SE) Main Entrance, with parking in the Lot #4.
Time: 9:00am to 2:00pm
| 8:45-9:15am | Arrival of Students/Introduction of Day's Activities |
| 9:30-10:30am | AMC8 Contest for students /Talk for Parents &Teachers |
|
10:30-11:15am |
Mathematical Talk for all! Title: A gentle introduction to Cryptography Cryptography is the science of secure communication. In this talk, we will formally introduce the concept of cryptography and explore what can be achieved using cryptographic techniques. We will then review the historical development of the field, beginning with Shannon’s one-time pad, moving through symmetric-key cryptography, and concluding with public-key cryptography. |
| 11:30am-12:30pm | Group Photo - followed by LUNCH at the Atlantic Dining Hall |
| 12:45pm-1:45pm |
Math Challenge Team Contest |
| 1:45-2:00pm | Wrap-up/Team Prizes/Dismissal |
