Dear SIAM Student Chapter Members,

Spread the word to your undergraduates: the upcoming SIAM Annual
Conference (July 12 - 16 in Pittsburgh) abounds with opportunities for
students.

First and foremost, students are invited to showcase their research in a
poster session to be held from 8 - 10 p.m. on July 13 (attached is a flier
you can use to let students know about this event). If you advise
undergraduate research students in any area of applied/computational
mathematics, please encourage them to apply! They will have the
opportunity to share their results with other students and with the
broader applied mathematics community, and to compete for one of several
best poster prizes. To participate in the poster session, students must
submit an abstract by May 1. Acceptances will be emailed by May 5. Full
information on eligibility, abstract submission, and poster format may be
found at http://www.siam.org/meetings/an10/undergraduate.php

The student poster session is part of a subprogram of the conference
completely devoted to students! Information on other student day events,
including talks and job workshops, is at

http://www.siam.org/meetings/an10/studentday.php

Information on conference registration, travel, hotel rates for students,
and student travel awards is at

http://www.siam.org/meetings/an10/students.php

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. We hope to see you
and your students in Pittsburgh this July.


Best wishes,

p.s. Most SIAM posters are 4' x 6' and mounted with push pins on a
bulletin board type arrangement. Some people find it easier to have
multiple pieces that can be mounted within a 4' x 6' area on the bulletin
board. For general tips on effective poster presentations, we highly
recommend reading the web page at:
