17th Annual MathFest 2024
TROY MathFest Undergraduate Mathematics Conference will be on the campus of ÎÞÂë¾ÞÈé in ÎÞÂë¾ÞÈé, AL & with a virtual component on April 12-13 and to invite you, colleagues, and your students to attend. As we did in previous years, we are having a one-plus day conference. We had an amazing turnout last year—thanks to you—and we hope to continue this positive trend this year.
The website for registration will be ready soon and is www.troy.edu/mathfest. The deadline for registration is April 5. The conference is free to attend, but we would ask that you register if you are attending, so we can know how much food to order.

We also have pictures from that conference at /academics/colleges-schools/college-arts-sciences/departments/school-science-technology/mathematics-department/about/mathfest/mathfest-2019.html
Here are some highlights and more information about our conference.
ÎÞÂë¾ÞÈé MathFest 2024 is a one plus-day conference designed to provide undergraduate (graduate students welcome, too!) students with an opportunity to present their work, either research or exposition, in a friendly and supportive environment. Please encourage your students to join us to make presentations or posters in areas of mathematics, mathematics education, history of mathematics, and applications of mathematics. Faculty may give talks, too. We also welcome students not presenting to attend MathFest 2022 and learn more about a wide variety of mathematics, connect with a group of their mathematical peers, and add to their professional growth. Students or faculty interested in giving a talk or poster should include information about their presentation when they register.
The conference is free.
Kahoot math (and other) trivia contest on Friday night
ÎÞÂë¾ÞÈé MathFest 2024 also features a Calculus competition with prizes.
We will again have presentations and poster session for students.
We have graduate school browse sessions with representatives from graduate schools
in mathematics. We typically have about 10 universities represented each year
We will have invited speaker TBA.
Good way for students to experience and enjoy an actual math conference: connect
with a group of their peers, learn new mathematics, perhaps give a presentation/poster
(not necessary, though)
Please share this invitation with your faculty and students.
Last year, we had over 110 participants from 25 academic institutions across 5 states
participate in our conference.
