Abstracts
February 3, Yunus Tuncbilek: I will talk about value investing and why, in many ways, mathematicians are better suited to be value investors than the general public or even the institutional investors. The talk should be informative and enjoyable for any person who wants to increase their income over a long period of time without doing much work.
February 17, Rebecca Gasper: There are so many careers in mathematics! Rebecca Gasper (Ph.D. Applied Mathematical and Computational Sciences, University of Iowa) decided to be a math professor by the end of her first calculus class. From tutoring through college and graduate school, preparation and luck, things fell into place. So what changed? She talks about her personal experience first in academia and then in corporate America, from pure math to data science, and gracefully changing her path. Plenty of time will be reserved for Q&A, so bring your questions about getting hired, workload, and culture in each “world.”
