Program for Women finishing Math PhDs Events

By sastewart
Posted Tue Apr 08, 2008 at 12:47:56 PM PDT
The 2nd annual Career Mentoring Worskhop (CaMeW) for Women in the mathematical sciences is to be held July 27-29, 2008 at Wheaton College (Massachusetts).  The goals of the workshop are to help inform women finishing their PhDs about different aspects of the job search and different career paths and to introduce them to peers and mentors on whom they can call over the next year (and beyond).  We had a very successful first workshop last summer at West Point and we hope to build on that this summer.  We are soliciting applications from women who are intending to finish their PhDs next year. Funding from an MAA/Tensor grant, Wheaton College and the Math Dept at West Point will provide at least partial funding for all participants.

You can find more information at our website:
http://www.wheatoncollege.edu/CaMeW/. The application deadline is May 1st.

New Program for Women in Graduate School Events

By sastewart
Posted Fri Apr 06, 2007 at 11:25:12 AM PDT
A new program is being launched this summer for women beginning their final year in graduate school.  The organizers of this workshop have recognized the need to reach out to graduate students who are finishing their PhDs to offer perspective on the job search process and to mentor them as they progress through the very stressful last year in graduate school.  We are starting to address this issue by offering a career mentoring workshop (CaMeW) for women in their last years in PhD programs in the mathematical sciences.  We will encourage them to think about the kind of professional career they want and hopefully set them on the path to finding that first job that is a great fit for them and that will help them reach their goals.  During the workshop we will let them know about other great opportunities out there - the AWM workshop, NExT, etc that they can take advantage of later.

This workshop will be held in August at West Point and you can find all
the necessary information by visiting our website:

I am one of the organizers for this workshop, so if you have any questions, please contact me, Sarah Ann Stewart, at stewarts@mail.belmont.edu.

How were the Joint Meetings?
Fantastic! We shouldn't wait another 15 years to go back!
Nice, except for that crazy violin talk.
Don't know - I only saw the inside of the Employment Center
If we had any travel money, I'm sure I would have enjoyed it
