We are pleased to announce the 1st annual Charleston Regional Undergraduate Mathematics Conference (CRUMC).

This conference will provide a forum for undergraduates to present results from their undergraduate research experiences. It will give students an opportunity to demonstrate to graduate school recruiters and potential employers their ability to present and explicate their research in advanced mathematics. And finally it will help generate interest in research in mathematics among undergraduates.
