The AMS sponsors us to run various mathematics-related events! Below is a collection of recents seminars and information sessions that this has supported. You can also find information on our department webpage.
We have a seminar which students can use to speak on any topic of their choosing. Be that related to their research, practice for an upcoming presentation, or just some fun mathematics they came across recently!

A previous BU mathematics graduate student kindly left a sum of money for us to run community building events for the current students.
Every week we run an informal event for graduate students to eat bagels, drink tea/coffee, and just socialise.
Time: Monday 10am-12pm
Location: MCS 241
When we can find a free moment for a bunch of us, we try to get outside the confines of the university to enjoy ourselves a bit!
