SUMMARY:2024 Integration Competition
DESCRIPTION:The Integration Competition (held 4 times in the past at this university\, funded by AARMS)\, is a head-to-head competition\, in which all first-year calculus students are eligible to compete. Integrals of increasing difficulty are projected\, and two students work head to head\, to solve it first. The winner moves on\, and the other student is eliminated. This process moves through successive rounds until only 2 students are left\, solving a challenging problem in integration. This generates excitement about mathematics among first year students\, aids in recruitment of students to the mathematics major program\, and provides motivation for students to engage more deeply with the curriculum in first-year calculus. This event will also serve as an outreach opportunity to connect first-year students with upper-year students\, and to discuss opportunities available to math students.

SUMMARY:AARMS Seminar: EDI in STEM with Dr. Lisa Willis
DESCRIPTION:While EDI has become an often referred to issue in academia and society\, it remains a challenging topic to discuss\, especially for people in STEM fields. Fear of making a mistake or not knowing what to say results in people disengaging from the conversation. Additionally\, the multitude of initiatives and obligations in the EDI space\, few of which seem to be making a real difference\, is leading to EDI fatigue. In this talk\, we will discuss how we as imperfect people can create meaningful sustainable change for ourselves and for the people around us. \nDr. Willis received her B.Sc. in Biochemistry from the University of Victoria and Ph.D. in Molecular and Cellular Biology in the lab of Dr. Chris Whitfield at the University of Guelph. She did her postdoctoral fellowship with Dr. Mark Nitz in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Toronto\, where she received the prestigious Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship. In 2019\, she started as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Alberta\, where she is also an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology. She is also the founder of InclusiveSTEM\, a literature-based and data-driven framework for improving the participation and lived experiences of people from marginalized groups in STEM. \n  \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/83234913058?pwd=SFRHcS9SUGpXT09ueHUzY0h6SFpzdz09 \n  \nMeeting ID: 832 3491 3058 \nPasscode: 721065

SUMMARY:StFX Integration Challenge 2019
DESCRIPTION:The Integration Challenge is a competition for solving integrals. Two participants compete head-to-head on an integration question\, with the first correct response declared the winner of the round; the opponent is knocked out. With each successive round\, the competitors are narrowed down by a factor of 2 until only two remain (plus one consolation round to determine 3rd and 4th place). The event is designed to encourage increased engagement in first-year calculus\, and also to provide an avenue to promote math as a major\, and also career opportunities.

SUMMARY:The Ken Ireland Public Lecture: What is a Smart Village?
DESCRIPTION:What is a smart village?\nUsing mathematics for rural prosperity \nV. Kumar Murty (University of Toronto) \nWe conceive of a smart community as one in which static social inequality is minimized. Modelling this mathematically and translating it into a development strategy is one of the big global challenges of our time. When implemented\, it will affect 3 billion people\, or about half the world’s population. \nAbout the speaker: Kumar Murty received his BSc from Carleton University and his PhD in Mathematics from Harvard University. He has been a faculty member at the University of Toronto since 1987. His research is in the fields of number theory\, algebraic geometry and their applications to Information Technology. He has published more than 100 papers and 8 books in these areas. He holds two patents and has been involved with a number of startups. His research has been recognized with the prestigious Steacie Fellowship and election to the Royal Society of Canada. During the last nine years\, Kumar served as the Chair of the Department of Mathematics and helped create the Centre for Applied Mathematics\, to drive mathematical innovation. This year he was awarded the Connaught Global Challenge Award (together with Mariana Prado of the Faculty of Law and Joseph Wong of the Munk School) to study a scalable architecture for smart villages. \nAbout the Ireland Lecture:  Hosted by the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Fredericton\, the Kenneth Ireland Memorial Lecture Series honours the late Dr Kenneth F Ireland\, Professor of Mathematics and Statistics. Dr Ireland is fondly remembered as a great colleague\, a fine writer\, and a skilled musician\, with a profound interest in the history of mathematics; his graduate-level textbook on number theory\, written with Dr Michael Rosen at Brown University\, remains an internationally highly-regarded standard text.
