The student chapter of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) at Santa Clara University supports the advancement of women in the field of mathematics. Its mission is to create a community in which women and girls can thrive in their mathematical endeavors and to promote equitable opportunity and gender-inclusivity across the mathematical sciences. The AWM welcomes all who love mathematics and support a more equitable environment for under-represented groups, including women and gender minorities.
We hold several events each quarter, including hikes, game nights, a Women in STEM panel and more. We welcome your membership!
