New York Combinatorics
NYC-SRP is a summer research program for students that is primarily virtual with some in-person events. The goal of the program is to engage students in a research experience with combinatorics faculty.
NYC-SRP offers students the opportunity to engage in research projects spanning a wide range of topics in combinatorics. Each project is guided by a mathematician with subject-matter expertise and experience mentoring students.
The program takes place over June, July, and August. Students and mentors meet on schedules that work for them using modalities (in-person or virtual) that work best for them. Students explore a focused research question, develop new skills, and contribute to an active area of mathematical research.
Participants share the results of their work through a poster presentation at either Fall Graph Theory Day or Spring Combinatorics Day.
When available, student stipends are provided by individual faculty mentors through their research grants.
Community Agreement: NYC-SRP aims to offer a joyful, meaningful, and empowering experience. We will build that rich experience together by devoting our strongest possible effort to the REU. You will be challenged and supported. Please prepare to take an active, critical, patient, and generous role in your own learning and research and that of your cohort.
