Description
Back to topThe Infinite Possibilities Conference (IPC) is a national conference designed to showcase the infinite possibilities of mathematics for participants at all stages of the pipeline, from undergraduate and graduate students to professionals in academia, industry and government. IPC aims to foster a sense of community and welcomes all mathematicians who feel they may contribute to or benefit from this event. IPC 2025 marks the 20th year of IPC programming!
IPC will take place at The Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation (IMSI), which is located on the campus of the University of Chicago.

Etta Z. Falconer Award for Mentoring and Commitment to Diversity
The Infinite Possibilities Conference Steering Committee, along with the Spelman College Mathematics Department and the Falconer Family, established the Etta Z. Falconer Award for Mentoring and Commitment to Diversity to recognize individuals who have demonstrated a professional commitment to mentoring and increasing diversity in the sciences, and in particular the mathematical sciences. The award will be formally presented during the 2025 Infinite Possibilities Conference at the Etta Z. Falconer Banquet on April 12, 2025, in Chicago, IL. The banquet is funded through the generosity of The University of Chicago.
Conference Pre-Events
Two pre-events for the conference are scheduled for the afternoon of Thursday, April 10.
- AI in the Mathematical Sciences: Entry Points, Perspectives, and Ethical Considerations is a mini-course offering a primer on AI for mathematical scientists.
- Yes, And! Improvisation for Mathematicians and Statisticians is an improv workshop open to graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and people working in industry who have research to discuss.
These events are only open to registered participants in the IPC, and they carry no additional cost. You can indicate interest in attending them as part of the IPC registration process. Please note that participants can only attend one of these events, and that space for each is limited.
