Welcome to the FIU Math Club!
If you've made it this far, you probably have some interest in mathematics. Well look no further! The Math Club serves the student body of Florida International University by offering several engaging events throughout the semester. Make sure to add us on www.orgsync.com to stay up to date with us and all our activities through FIU's club social network, Orgsync!
To be a part of the FIU Math Club community, be sure to sign up and join us on the Official Message Board! A brand new environment for students, professors, and members of the FIU and online community to engage in discussion of mathematics, professional development, graduate school, as well as other fun and academic interests!

Hello Mathematicians!
This week we will be kicking off our GRE Jeapordy Training in DM 409A 2:30-4:30. This event will be held weekly same place same time.
Also up this week:
2/8 -- Spring Conference Informational Meeting 4:00-5:00 DM 442A (Conference Room)
Those interested in attending the conference are urged to attend this meeting
2/9 -- Student Colloquium DM 409 A 3:30-4:30
Douglas Lawrence will be presenting his colloquium:
"Neutrino Oscillations and their Consequences to the Standard Model of Particle Physics"
Abstract: In 1964, predictions were made on the flux of neutrinos from the sun, but measurements only showed about 1/3 of the predicted flux. The solution to this problem was finished in 1969 and showed that neutrino flavors are not eigenstates of the Hamiltonian operator, but actually linear combinations of eigenstates, which produces a finite probability of detecting a particular flavor of neutrino at one instance in time and then detecting a different flavor at a second time. In other words, the neutrinos that we are able to detect are allowed to oscillate between types. This is only possible, however, if neutrinos have mass.

Chilis Night will be held around 9:30 at NW 13th Terrace & 87th Avenue, Tamiami Fl.
See you guys there!
