Club Math

Club Math is a social organization for students at Georgia Tech with an interest in mathematics. We meet weekly to discuss problems and puzzles, play games, and learn about interesting topics beyond the scope of what is taught in the classroom. Throughout the coming semester, we plan on expanding our catalog of activities to include crafts such as mathematical knitting and origami, talks organized and presented by Club Math students, and occasional events such as movie nights.

The Association for Women in Mathematics Undergraduate Chapter

The AWM is an organization with the goal of supporting and encouraging women and girls interested in or actively pursuing careers in mathematics. 

AWM meets most Mondays at 6:00 pm in Skiles 006 for Spring 2022.

For more information, contact Nidhi Pai npai9@gatech.edu.

Actuary Club

The Actuary Club assists prospective and practicing actuaries from the Georgia Tech community enabling them to come together to help one another find resources, give guidance, and make new contacts.

The Actuary Club will have bi-weekly meetings on every other Thursday in Spring 2022 starting January 20.

Pi Mu Epsilon - πμε

Pi Mu Epsilon is a National Mathematics Honor Society whose purpose is to promote scholarly activities in mathematics among students, staff, faculty, and graduates. The Georgia Beta chapter at Georgia Tech was established in 1958 and organizes the annual Georgia Tech High School Mathematics Competition (HSMC).

Putnam Competition

The William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition is an annual event held on the first Saturday in December. The competition began in 1938 and is designed to stimulate a healthful rivalry in mathematical studies in the colleges and universities of the United States and Canada. It exists because Mr. William Lowell Putnam had a profound conviction in the value of organized team competition in regular college studies. Mr. Putnam, a member of the Harvard class of 1882, wrote an article for the December 1921 issue of the Harvard Graduates’ Magazine in which he described the merits of an intellectual intercollegiate competition. To establish such a competition, his widow, Elizabeth Lowell Putnam, in 1927 created a trust fund known as the William Lowell Putnam Intercollegiate Memorial Fund. The first competition supported by this fund was in the field of English and a few years later a second experimental competition was held, this time in mathematics between two institutions. It was not until after Mrs. Putnam’s death in 1935 that the examination assumed its present form and was placed under the administration of the Mathematical Association of America.

SIAM Student Chapter

Student chapters of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) are organized at colleges and universities to encourage the promotion of applied mathematics and computational science to young mathematicians. Student chapters provide opportunities to share ideas, learn about careers in applied and computational mathematics, and develop networks with faculty and fellow students. The Georgia Tech chapter organizes a weekly student seminar and organizes/takes part in a yearly conference involving the other student chapters of the Southeast.
