The EDGE Summer Program is a four-week, residential session designed to prepare a cohort of gender nonconforming individuals to thrive in their PhD programs in the mathematical sciences. The 2025 EDGE Summer Program will be held June 1 – June 28, 2025 at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
Program activities include:
- Four core workshops in courses such as algebra, analysis, measure theory, and machine learning.
- Daily collaborative problem sessions with advanced graduate student mentors.
- Regular office hours and highly personalized feedback from facilitators.
- Weekly colloquium on a variety of research topics.
- Special discussions on equity and identity in mathematics, teaching practices, and other professional development skills.
The EDGE Foundation will cover all travel, room, and board expenses related to the Summer Program. Program participants will also receive a modest stipend.
Applicants to the program should be women or gender nonconforming individuals who: 1) are applying to PhD programs in the mathematical sciences or 2) just completed their first year in a PhD program in the mathematical sciences. Students from underrepresented minority groups are especially encouraged to apply.
