Canadian Undergraduate Mathematics Conference
The Canadian Undergraduate Mathematics Conference (CUMC) is an annual gathering of undergraduate mathematics students at a Canadian university. The host institution for a given year is determined by an election process during the previous year's gathering. CUMCs are usually held during the summer, for a period of approximately four days. CUMCs are intended to be bilingual (English and French).
The inaugural session was held at the McGill University campus in Montreal in 1994. CUMC meetings typically draw between 100 and 150 participants.
Student participants are encouraged to give talks (25 or 50 minutes) on their mathematical research or interests. Student abstracts are usually published online and in a conference kit distributed to participants.
