Who Wants to Be a Mathematician?

Next week, Dr. Christine Jerritts will be in the department to give some "crazy career advice" based on her own unique professional path. Dr. Jerritts worked in the finance industry after completing her Ph.D. After that, she started her own consulting company, Imagine Math! You can check out the company here. She also drives race cars - how cool is that?

Her talk will be Wednesday, September 29 at 5:00 PM in PHSC 1105 as a joint meeting of the Graduate Student Seminar and the Math Club. Yes, there will be pizza. More information and an abstract are available on the Math Club blog. Dr. Jerritts will also be meeting with the Women in Math group at lunchtime (11:45-1:30, come and go as needed) on Wednesday in the Math Department Lounge. (The Women in Math group welcomes everyone supportive of women in mathematics at OU. Feel free to bring a lunch or talk to Dr. Kornelson about a lunch order for that day.)
