About I/ITSEC: The National Training and Simulation Association(NTSA)promotes international and interdisciplinary cooperation within the professional fields of modeling, simulation, and training. NTSA brings government, academia, and industry together to develop new training and simulation solutions through events such as the annual Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference(I/ITSEC)(https://www.iitsec.org/), the world’s largest modeling, simulation, and training event. Among its many activities and events, I/ITSEC includes Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics(STEM)events for teachers and secondary students.
We are pleased to announce that the paraDIGMS 2021 Fall Conference will be hosted virtually by the Institute of Mathematical and Statistical Innovation (IMSI) on October 28-31. Sponsored by the American Mathematical Society (AMS), the conference will highlight work by individuals and organizations to build a diverse and equitable profession through graduate education, while also challenging us to see how far we still have to go. Registration is free and is now open.
paraDIGMS programming also includes ongoing activities — small working groups and a workshops series — specifically targeted at graduate program leaders. These are described on our AMS webpage. We hope that you and the members of your graduate committee will consider participating in some of the activities we''''re organizing! You can sign up for the working groups and join the mailing list. Some workshops may be space limited, and in that case, first priority will be given to those in the working groups.
If you have any questions, you may reach the organizing committee at paradigms@ams.org. Thanks!
