The 22nd Biennial Alumni Seminar

As in every even-numbered year since 1964, alums of the Department of Mathematics will return to the University of Dayton to gather together and meet with students interested in mathematics. This will give our alums an opportunity to inform students about the professions they are in and how their studies in mathematics relate to their careers.

This year the Seminar will consist of a panel session followed by break-out sessions.  During the panel session, professionals representing many careers will be introduced.  These professionals will in turn give a brief introduction to specific careers.  Break-out sessions will then follow the panel session.  In the break-out sessions, students can meet with the professionals more informally and learn more.  In addition to careers, we will include a session on preparation for graduate school and a session on writing resumes and preparing for interviews.

Break-out sessions will be held for:

Statistics Business 
Information Technology Government      
Engineering   Teaching
Actuarial Science  Financial Engineering
Mathematics Education Preparation for Graduate School  
Resume Writing/Preparing for Interviews
