Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM), USU Chapter

The Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) is a non-profit organization that encourages women and girls to study and have active careers in mathematical sciences and promotes equal opportunities and equal treatment of women and girls in the mathematical sciences. AWM was founded in 1971 and has more than 3000 members.

The USU chapter of AWM meets several times each semester for activities like seminars, guest speakers, and game nights, and also collaborates with other campus clubs and with Science Unwrapped. These events are a fun way to connect with other students, get involved in the department, and pick up helpful tips for teaching, research, and future careers.

AWM Statement of Welcoming Environment

It is the policy of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) that all participants in AWM activities will enjoy a welcoming, inclusive environment that is free from all forms of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. As a professional organization, the AWM is committed to fostering an atmosphere that encourages the free expression and exchange of scientific ideas. In pursuit of that ideal, the AWM is committed to the promotion of equality of opportunity and treatment for all AWM members and participants in AWM-sponsored events, regardless of gender, gender identity or expression, race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion or religious belief, age, marital status, sexual orientation, immigration status, disabilities, veteran status, or any other reason not related to scientific merit. Harassment, sexual or otherwise, is a form of misconduct that undermines the integrity of AWM activities.
