Frontiers in Mathematics Lecture Series
Frontiers in Mathematics is the premier lecture series in the Texas A&M University Department of Mathematics. Each year up to ten distinguished mathematicians are invited to visit the campus for a week, and to deliver series of lectures on current research. This also provides opportunities for interactions with our faculty and graduate students. We invite you to view our current list of speakers, and to browse through our archives below.
