Student Member Benefits
Grow as a scholar and mathematician with MAA Student Membership.
The MAA is dedicated to improving the undergraduate mathematics curriculum, enhancing your experience as a student, and creating opportunities for you to start and expand your professional network of mathematicians and math educators. As a Student Member, you will be able to directly engage with the mathematical community outside of your department, present your own research at regional section meetings and our annual conference, take a leadership role within your regional section, and investigate the finer points of your field as a member of one of our special interests groups. Student Membership is open to undergraduate and graduate students at 2- and 4-year colleges and universities who have an interest in the mathematical sciences. We also welcome K-12 students into this group.
