The Celebration of Women in Mathematics was held on October 15, 2019 at Elizabeth City State University with over 250 girls and over 30 teachers attending. This event was sponsored by the NSF Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence in Remote Sensing Education and Research (CERSER).
Celebration of Women in Mathematics consists of a program of workshops, talks, and math competitions for middle/high school girls and their teachers. The purpose of the program is to encourage young women to continue their study of mathematics and to raise the level of mathematics competency in Northeastern North Carolina.
