MAA Sections

Sections of the MAA

Active MAA members who reside in the United States and Canada have the benefit of being affiliated with one of its regional sections. At present, the MAA has 29 sections, which are defined by ZIP or postal code. Sections are a vital component of the MAA, and a significant part of the Association's activity is centered on them. Each section holds at least one professional meeting per year, usually in the Spring. Many sections also conduct activities that involve both high school and college students. These include:

  • Sponsoring mathematics contests
  • Advising state departments of education on teacher certification in the mathematical sciences
  • Working with high schools and colleges on course content and curricula
  • Providing lecturers to colleges and high schools

Section Meetings

Section meetings include, but are not limited to:

  • Invited lectures
  • Contributed papers
  • Panel discussions
  • Other activities designed to promote and improve collegiate level mathematics
