AMIGAs is a week-long summer program for incoming second or third year students in graduate programs in the USA, designed to support and train a new generation of mathematical scientists in applied and computational mathematics, with a special emphasis on increasing the number of women, particularly those from historically excluded racial groups, in both academia and industry.
The world of applied mathematics is rapidly changing from classical applied mathematics, which focused mainly on physical applications, to a world that is more heavily focused on data and technology. In this Big Data era, students must be suitably prepared to enter an area of research more heavily focused on computational skills such as statistics, optimization, and machine learning. The purpose of AMIGAs is to support and train a new generation of mathematical scientists, with a special emphasis on increasing the number of women of color in applied and computational mathematics. This program will provide students with computational and professional skills to successfully enter a new research environment, through tutorials, professional development activities, and research talks related to the mathematics of data science and its applications.
