Full details are available at: http://math.ryerson.ca/graduate/ or by sending an email to: ferrando@ryerson.ca Overview Our program leads to the degree of Master of Science in Applied Mathematics. This is a two-year, thesis-based full time program designed for students who have completed a four-year Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics or related fields requiring significant mathematical course work or mathematical maturity. In addition to having adequate background in mathematics, students should be self-motivated and interested in research collaboration with faculty. As part of the program, students will be required to complete five courses and to participate regularly in a graduate seminar series throughout latter part (Semester 4 -Semester 6) of their studies. Our program is research-oriented. Students will be assigned a thesis advisor who will assist them in the preparation of an acceptable thesis. Our program has two main goals: 1. The program is intended to provide a technically oriented and scientific post-graduate education to individuals who are motivated either to extend their mathematical knowledge and education or to acquire new technical/scientific skills in the mathematical sciences or related disciplines. 2. The program will provide students with adequate background to engage in doctoral studies in applied mathematics or to successfully embark upon a career in industry that demands a high level of quantitative/analytical background and skills. Reports and studies carried out by professional organizations have shown that there is an increasing need in the work force for mathematics. Graduates of our program will satisfy a current and growing demand for mathematically trained individuals who are able to move into business and industry. Funding for First Year Graduate Students: Top applicants will normally receive a minimum funding of $22,000, this includes TA work and corresponds to the full first year. The minimum funding for first year students is $20,000. The funding for the second year is higher but is tied up to performance and extra support from supervisors.

This is the continuation of summer school series organized Centre on Disease Modeling (CDM) team (formerly known as the NCE-MITACS team on? Transmission Dynamics and Spatial Spread of Infectious Diseases: Modelling, Prediction and Control). The purpose of the summer school is to provide effective training for collaborative research in infectious diseases based on mathematical modeling and qualitative analysis.? Our goal is two-fold: to educate mathematically trained students how to address issues of great importance in disease control and prevention, and to educate public? health students and researchers why and how mathematical modeling tools are useful for public health research. It is our hope that the summer school will prepare? students who wish to work as modelers in a public health environment, and to help public health people and mathematical modelers to learn a language in which? they can communicate with one another. The scientific program of the summer school consists of a variety of formats including short courses, case studies, public lectures and group projects.? Financial assistance for graduate student participants are available.

Registration is now open for the 2012 Canadian Undergraduate Mathematics Conference (CUMC), which is being held at the University of British Columbia?s Okanagan campus from July 11th to 15th. If you have not heard of the CUMC before, now is your opportunity to get on board with Canada?s premier undergraduate mathematics conference. If you have heard of the CUMC, now is the time to get excited to attend the conference! The CUMC provides a great experience for undergraduate students, as it gives you a chance to attend a national conference where you can gain confidence in presenting, and it gives you the opportunity to network and share ideas with others who share your passion. The conference strives to bring together the diversity that underlies mathematics, and includes participants from fields as widespread as pure math, applied math, physics, economics, statistics, computer science, mathematical finance, and beyond. Any student in a mathematics related field is invited and encouraged to attend and give a talk. We hope that you will talk to other students and your professors about this conference and the exciting opportunities it offers for undergraduate students of all levels. We would love to see you and a group of your friends, and maybe even a favorite professor, attend the conference this year. Remember, you are invited to give a talk, but are also welcome to simply attend and learn from others. If you are not involved in research, you?re invited to talk about whatever you are passionate about in regards to mathematics. You may choose to talk about a particular aspect of mathematics that you find interesting, a proof you enjoy working through, a historical aspect of the evolution of mathematics, or any other mathematics topic you wish to share. You will encounter many new topics from these presentations, and will have the opportunity to both give and receive feedback from your peers. The CUMC is a non-competitive forum for building connections between students of all levels and backgrounds and aims for diversity in its presenters. In fact, the three core principles of the conference are bilingualism, non-competitiveness, and regional diversity. The conference also features renowned keynote speakers from a variety of disciplines. These keynote speakers who are invited to the CUMC are either prominent research figures or rising stars in their fields, and most importantly are people who care about undergraduate students and their exposure to mathematics. This is the largest conference of its kind in North America, and we hope that you will get involved and join others from across the country. Everyone attending will leave with new experiences, new understanding, new ideas, and a new passion for mathematics! For further information on the conference, please visit our website at cumc.math.ca or contact us with any questions at cumc.2012@ubc.ca.

The poster session will take place on June 3-4, 2012 at the site of the CMS Summer meeting in Regina. This is great opportunity to present your research in a more relaxed atmosphere without the pressure of giving a talk. The poster can be on your current or previous research, it could simply be a survey of the topic you are planning to start your research in or even just a fun and interesting topic of mathematics. There will be judging and the top three posters will be awarded cash prizes as well as two complimentary banquet tickets each. To register for the poster session and for more information, please go to http://cms.math.ca/Events/summer12/students. The deadline for the registration is April 30th.
