The Math Conference will be located in a new location this year. Activities will begin in Laws Hall (the building address is 551 E. High Street, Oxford, OH 45056). Signs will be posted inside the building directing you to the Registration area where you can pick up your registration packet, which will include full programs with abstracts, meal tickets, and registration receipts. You will need your name tag, included in your registration packet, if you are attending any of the meals. Please see Parking Options below for information about visitor parking. Without a parking pass, you risk receiving a parking ticket.
You can register here.
You can pay for registration in advance before arriving at the Annual Math Conference.
Note: Miami University is a cashless campus. Please be prepared to use a debit or credit card for registration and meal fees at the conference.
Please book rooms as soon as possible as hotels frequently sell out long before the conference! Reservations must be made directly with the hotel via phone call, or booking link. Rates are per night and do not include taxes. Individual establishments have determined their minimum rates due to the strong demand for lodging during the fall season.

Additional Area Hotels and Inns
A permit will be required to park in any Miami parking lot that is not a Pay-To-Park (metered) lot. Your license plate will serve as your permit, and a link will be available closer to conference time so that you can register your vehicle. Your vehicle must be registered to park in a lot, otherwise, you will need to park in a garage or metered lot. To familiarize yourself with parking policies and the various parking areas, visit the Miami Parking Website and click on the ‘Where do I park?’ block. The closest parking to our new location will be the Cook Field area.
Beginning on Sept. 23, 2024, a link to request a parking permit will be sent to the email address included in your registration. Please complete this form before parking on campus. You will not be charged for the permit. If you do not receive the link before Oct. 1, 2024, contact the Math Department at 513-529-5818.
Please see the map of all parking areas on campus.
We also have on-campus parking garage options, the North Garage and the South Garage. You will need to pay per hour to park in the garage. Hourly rates for the North Garage fees are $2.00 for the first hour, and $1.00 for each additional hour. The hourly rate for the South Garage is $1.00 for the first hour, and $0.50 for each additional hour.
Please plan accordingly, as cash is not accepted at parking garages, parking meters, etc.
Please bring the ticket to the registration desk, or you can mail it to Miami University; Department of Mathematics; 311 Upham Hall; Oxford, Oh 45056. The Math Department will then contact the Parking Office to request that the ticket be voided. We can not guarantee your ticket will be voided.
Miami's Annual Mathematics Conference is long-standing, first held in 1974.
