interest that advances the MAA mission. Within these communities, members gain access to opportunities for networking, professional development, and discussion of issues relevant to the represented interest. In addition to enhancing interactions among their members, each SIGMAA facilitates interactions between their members and the greater mathematics community by providing resources and expert knowledge relevant to their special interests.</p> <p>Membership in a SIGMAA requires an annual dues payment of $12 per group, in addition to your MAA membership. To learn more about an individual SIGMAA, click on a tab at the bottom of the page or visit the SIGMAA web pages using the links on the left.
