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.

SUMMARY:CAIMS 2017 – Public Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Chad Topaz\, Williams College \nSchools of fish\, flocks of birds\, herds of mammals\, and even colonies of bacteria all show behavior we call ‘swarming’\, but these groups are difficult to understand biologically and mathematically. I will give an overview of how social and biological interactions lead to swarming behavior. I will also discuss how mathematical modeling (describing the real world with mathematics) can be used to study locust swarms\, which are the most massive and destructive swarms on Earth. Swarming is related to many phenomena of collective behavior in nature and society\, where seemingly independent objects — like neurons\, metronomes\, and even people — start to act in the same way. This public lecture will be interactive and accessible; no technical knowledge is required.

SUMMARY:Blundon Seminar Camp at Memorial
DESCRIPTION:The Blundon seminar is our annual three-day event for senior high school students who are interested in mathematics and demonstrate consistently good performance in mathematics competitions. Participation in the seminar is by invitation only based on the results of preceding Blundon\, Euclid\, Fermat\,and Cayley contests. Each year we have about 35-50 students. \nDuring the seminar the students attend two one-hour talks given by professors from MUN on various mathematical topics and applications in science and engineering. There are several problem solving sessions as well as other activities such as Mathletics and Papers Chase. The winner of Blundon Contest is presented with the Blundon Shield\, and the winners of other contests are also presented with money and book prizes. The awards for the best results in mathematics competitions are presented during the banquet\, where a collective photo is taken as well. \nThe first Blundon seminar took place in May 1982. It is named after professor W.J. Blundon who was the first head of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at MUN\, and an avid problem solver. This seminar traditionally combines intellectual and fun/sport components. According to students responses collected after each seminar this event is enjoyable\, informative\, and memorable for many of them. It also plays a significant role in the recruitment of the best student for their further studies at MUN. \nMany of former participants continue to show a great success during their graduate studies of mathematics in other universities including University of Toronto\, U of Waterloo\, and UBC. Several of our current faculty members were participants of the seminar in the past.
