This is an 8-week cohort-based research experience at Warwick for undergraduate students of mathematics belonging to groups underrepresented in mathematics.

Our 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.  

How will this work?

• We plan for a cohort of 9-12 students, who will all live at the University of Warwick for 8 weeks , 8 July -  30 August (a six week version starting on 8 July may be available).

• You will work in a group of 2-4 on a common mathematics research problem,  supervised by a member of the Warwick research staff and with the further support of a PhD student mentor.  Occasional meetings will be on Zoom, but there will be plenty of in-person interaction.  Problems will come from a range of mathematical areas.

• In addition to the research problems, we'll provide a range of academic and social activities bringing all students together.

• Participants will receive a stipend for the programme.  This will be at least £1500 (and may be increased to cover provided accommodation subject to availability).

• We will also reimburse round-trip train fare to Coventry.
