Who we are
Unbounded Representation (URep) is a graduate student group within the UC Berkeley Department of Mathematics that promotes dialogue about the different kinds of diversity in the math community. One of our goals is to assess the diversity-related climate of the Math graduate student program. We are also working to develop programs that support Math graduate students who come from traditionally underrepresented groups, as well as the wider community of Math graduate students.
