The EDGE Foundation is accepting applications for the EDGE Summer Program, a four-week, residential session designed to prepare women and gender nonconforming individuals to thrive in their mathematical sciences PhD programs. The 2025 program will be held June 1–28, 2025, at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
Program activities include the following:
- Four core workshops in courses such as algebra, analysis, measure theory, and machine learning
- Daily collaborative problem sessions with advanced graduate student mentors
- Regular office hours and highly personalized feedback from facilitators
- Weekly colloquium on a variety of research topics
- Special discussions on equity and identity in mathematics, teaching practices, and other professional development skills
The EDGE Foundation will cover all travel, room, and board expenses related to the program, and participants will receive a modest stipend.
Applicants should be women or gender nonconforming individuals who are applying to PhD programs in the mathematical sciences or just completed their first year in a PhD program in the mathematical sciences. Students from underrepresented minority groups are encouraged to apply.
Apply through MathPrograms by February 14, 2025. Questions should be sent to edgestaff@edgeforwomen.org.
