Long before Canada was formed, the Stó:lō (people of the river) occupied the land on which UFV is located. They lived in the Fraser Valley and lower Fraser Canyon of British Columbia and they spoke Halq'eméylem, also known as the upriver dialect.

UFV recognizes and honours the contribution that Aboriginal people have made — and continue to make — to our community. UFV supports Indigenous learners and seeks to incorporate indigenous ways of knowing in the curriculum.

Our seminar is an opportunity for students, researchers, faculty, industry specialists and science enthusiasts to come together, discuss and learn about specific topics in Mathematics & Statistics. It involves presentations by faculty, students, and experts who share research findings and explore advanced concepts not usually covered in standard courses. The goal is to foster a deeper understanding of the subjects through discussion and collaboration. Anyone is more than welcome to attend. 

Please contact me if you'd like to give a talk or have any questions. The list of past and upcoming talks is available here and below.
