Australian Mathematical Society Early Career Workshop 2013

preceding the 57th Annual Meeting of the Australian Mathematical Society, Sydney.

Dates & Venue: 28–29 September 2013; Waldorf Leura Gardens Resort, Blue Mountains

The Workshop will include talks on new and emerging research problems and will provide advice on careers in mathematical sciences. The ECW is an excellent opportunity to think about your career in mathematics, discuss issues facing early-career mathematicians and statisticians, and meet others from around the country! The Workshop will begin in the middle of Saturday 28th and conclude in the middle of Sunday 29th, to allow time for participants to make their way to the Opening Reception of the Annual Meeting of the AustMS at the University of Sydney

Workshop Format and Focus

The workshop will consist of 3 research and career presentations, 3 advice sessions, an information session and 3 discussion sessions. A large amount of question/discussion time will be allocated in all sessions.
