The Association for Women in Math is a non-profit organization founded in 1971. It currently has over 3500 members and more than 100 student chapters around the world. AWM has played a critical role in increasing the presence and visibility of women in mathematics. The association exists to support women in the pursuit of studies and careers in mathematics as well as to promote equitable opportunity and treatment of women within the mathematical sciences.
