Since 2004, the local control community has held a regional meeting on systems and control every two years. The primary objectives of these meetings are to share ideas and create a forum for interaction among local colleagues. The meeting has successfully been held at Queen's University (2004, 2010), the University of Toronto (2006, 2012), and the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ (2008).

The future looks bright for University of ��ݮ��Ƶ Faculty of Mathematics graduates, based on the results of this year's 'best jobs' ranking by .

The top eight jobs for 2014 are listed as:

1. Mathematician
2. University professor (tenured)
3. Statistician
4. Actuary
5. Audiologist
6. Dental hygienist
7. Software engineer
8. Computer systems analyst

The University of ��ݮ��Ƶ team did extremely well in the 2013 Putnam Mathematical Competition, finishing seventh overall, and first among Canadian universities. The top five teams were Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Carnegie Mellon, Stanford, Harvard, and California Institute of Technology (Cal Tech).

Congratulations to U��ݮ��Ƶ team members Kangning (Colin) Chen, Volodymyr Lyubinets, and Hao Sun, and to coach Professor Stephen New of the Pure Mathematics department.

Professor Sprott played a fundamental role for his department and faculty, serving both as founding chair starting in 1967, and also as the founding dean of the Faculty of Mathematics.

The award will be presented at convocation in June.

The inaugural Murray Martin Prize for the Best Research Paper by a Mathematics Graduate Student is awarded to Omar Léon Sánchez. His paper, “Relative D-groups and differential Galois theory in several derivations” was nominated by his supervisor, Rahim Moosa, of the Department of Pure Mathematics.

Patrick Hannigan (4A Computer Science (CS)), William Zhou (3B CS), Edward Yang (4A CS) and Daniel Yaroslavski (4B CS), were given the opportunity to showcase their learnings in front of peers and faculty along with a brief pitch of their ventures today at an Enterprise Co-op (E-Co-op) presentation session.

Seven subjects at the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ rank among the top 100 universities in the world, according to results published this week.

The , put U��ݮ��Ƶ 24th in the world in computer science and also 24th in the world in mathematics.

“We attract outstanding students and faculty members from around the world and I am delighted that their hard work is reflected in these results," says Ian Goulden, Dean of Mathematics.

St. Jerome’s University and the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ’s Faculty of Mathematics are pleased to announce that we have reached an agreement that will provide for the consolidation of mathematics at the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ. This agreement is effective May 1, 2014. As part of this agreement the faculty members in mathematics at St. Jerome's will join their colleagues in the Faculty of Mathematics at the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ.
