SIURO consists of articles written by undergraduate students in applied and computational mathematics, offering an opportunity for students to publish research they have completed as part of their undergraduate education and provides undergraduates incentives for conducting research. Each paper must be submitted with a letter from a sponsor. Faculty advisers or sponsors are not listed as coauthors but their guidance is recognized. SIURO provides a great opportunity for undergraduate students to share their results and experience a full paper review process. High school students may also submit their work.

• The sponsor may be a faculty member at the student’s institution or at an institution the student is visiting, or someone associated with a non-academic organization or government lab who supervised the research.
• The sponsor’s letter must document the fact that the research was done while the student was an undergraduate.
• Sponsors will not be listed as coauthors; however, a line may appear on the title page recognizing the guidance of the sponsor.
