Our department has several student-run groups that can help you connect with your peers and learn more about the broader mathematics community.

  • Mathematics Association at BU: The Mathematics Association at BU aims to promote conversation and collaboration between undergraduates interested in math. They host a variety of both professional and social events to immerse undergraduates in different fields of math. Follow them on Instagram at bostonu_ma.
  • The Society of Mathematics at BU: Often, academic communities driven by individual personal interest and self-directed study are designed for PhD students or professors. The Society of Mathematics at Boston University is such a community curated by and for undergraduates. Designed to emulate the coffeehouses and salons of the 20th century where people from all walks of life could assemble and discuss ideas previously accessible to only the intellectual elite, we hope to be a place where everyone can participate in and enjoy rigorous mathematical discourse (along with some informal discussion)! Please visit https://societyofmathematics.github.io/ or join our discord to learn more!
  • Undergraduate Women in Science and Engineering (uWISE): An interdisciplinary, student-focused group providing a community and support network for all those who support women in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields. Anyone and everyone with an interest in science is welcome to join; you don’t need to be majoring in a STEM field to be a part of uWISE. Come to make friends, learn more about the STEM disciplines, find study buddies, and join a community of like-minded individuals.
