Sonia Kovalevsky Math Day - Friday October 23, 2020

Arizona State University, West VIRTURAL event
New College of Interdisciplinary Arts and Science

  • Friday October 23, 2020

STEAM ends with M for mathematics, a foundation of critical thinking and learning for every student. Sonia Kovalevsky, a pioneer for women in Mathematics, a strong advocate of women rights , and the first woman to receive a PhD in Math, gives us ample reason to celebrate women in Mathematics.  

This Sonia Kovalevsky Day is an opportunity to engage Middle School and High School students in a day of networking, mentoring and fun! Students participate in interesting math activities, hear an exciting keynote about using Mathematics to design mobile apps that treat and study mental health, and listen to women mathematicians' experiences.
