Series Preface
Research experience has become an increasingly important aspect of undergraduate programs in mathematics. Students fortunate enough to take part in such research, either through their home institution or via an external program, are exposed to the heart of the discipline. These students learn valuable skills and habits of mind that reach beyond what is typically addressed by the undergraduate curriculum, and are often more attractive to graduate programs and future employers than peers without research experience
