  • FMS Undergraduate Research Symposium 2025 (July 31, 3pm-6pm)

    Wednesday, June 18, 2025 | By

    On behalf of the Faculty of Mathematics and Science (FMS), we are pleased to present to you the information below for the 2025 FMS Undergraduate Research Symposium.

    The FMS Undergraduate Research Symposium is back for 2025! For those unfamiliar, the event will consist of a poster session from undergraduate researchers in FMS at Brock. This event is a great opportunity for undergraduate researchers to share their research with the Brock community and develop valuable skills in their career as scientists. We again will be looking for volunteer judges (senior graduate students, staff, and faculty) and invite all undergraduate researchers in FMS to submit a poster.

    The 2025 FMS Undergraduate Research Symposium will take place on July 31 at 3 pm in the Pond Inlet. Refreshments and snacks will be served. All are invited to attend!

    Wolf was an inspiration to many — students, staff, and faculty alike.

    In addition to his research interests in differential equations and integrability, computer algebra, general relativity, and combinatorial game theory, Wolf had a passion for the computerization of the game Go and organized the Brock Go Club.  He was also actively engaged in various youth outreach and student initiatives, including the Caribou Contests, a mathematics camp, and serving as a judge in the Niagara Science Fair.

    More details about Wolf and his work can be found in the article in Brock News: Professor Thomas Wolf remembered for sharing his love of math – The Brock News

    The Faculty of Mathematics and Science is planning memorial activities in the Fall. Further details to follow.
