You've reached the website of the Warwick Mathematics Society, a student society based at the University of Warwick.
To find out more about the society view the About Us page.
To see what the society is up to and what we have planned, view the Events page.
If you would like to join the society you can do so through the UWSU website.
Already part of the society? You may like to register yourself on our website so you can access the members-only content, or contribute some content of your own!
The society is primarily academically focused, we offer a number of things to our members:
Learn LaTeX is our course (both online and in person) that will help you get to grips with typesetting mathematics on a computer.
Maths Cafe runs every Wednesday in the undergraduate common room.
Discussion Groups are weekly talks about interesting mathematics.
Crash Courses new for 07/08, help with modules that you're struggling with.
There are a number of ways that you can get involved with the running of the society. We are split into a number of 'groups' that handle distinct areas of the society. If you want to join a group all you need to do is be a member of the society and click subscribe on one of the group pages.
You can come along to any of our events and join in.
If you would like to join the society you can do so through the UWSU website.
You can contact the society through the contact page.
We use email as a primary means of contacting our members about events. We'd like to extend that opportunity to non-members. Anyone can sign up to our announce list, you'll only get a few emails a year, and you can un-subscribe at any time.

Next Monday the WMS is having a social in Top B. There will be lots of frivolous fun, frolics, dangerous drinks mayhem, and hats...
For early birds, we will be up in the grad from 8:30 and heading down to top b at 9. We'll grab some seats upstairs. Come say hi.
On August 8th 1900, in what was possibly the most famous lecture in the history of mathematics, the great David Hilbert set a list of 23 open problems that he deemed important enough to set the direction for mathematical research in the 20th century. These problems have all gained a special status in mathematical lore and have gained a great deal of attention during the past 100 years, leading to the resolution of many (though not all) of them.
Maths Cafe is back in the form of Revision Cafe, and just like last year, we are stepping it up to 2 days a week (Tuesday and Thursday). See you there!
Discussion Groups are back for term 3, starting with one of our trademark "Free-for-alls" this Monday at 7:30 in MS03: anyone is welcome to bring a piece of maths they find interesting/fun and hold a mini-discussion group about it (even as short as 10-15 minutes). Maths banter aplenty guaranteed, "then pub."
Last year, your favourite mathtastic mathciety ran a series of informal lectures for first and second years pre-exams: the idea was to bring you up to speed and give you an overview of topics to make your exams just a little better- Their success was, to be honest, mixed at best, but we want to change that.
This year they're coming back, bigger and better than ever, but we need your help to make 'em that way...
I'd just like to highlight that the Warwick Mathematics Society has passed a significant milestone in terms of members: 400.
When the WMS was known by that rather ugly M-word, numbers would just about limp over 200, now with all the diverse academic support, extra-curricular and social activities we've rocketed through 400.
I would encourage new members to feel free to post on the forums, even just to say hello, or ask for help, or to give it!
