British Early Career Mathematicians' Colloquium

13^th - 14^th June 2024

The British Early Career Mathematicians' Colloquium aims to consolidate the network among early career researchers and postgraduate students from across the country. This two-day event will be divided into parallel sessions, each with plenary speakers as well as contributed postgraduate talks. After tremendous recent success, we are pleased to announce that the conference will again be having sessions on Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, History of Mathematics and Mathematics Education.
