These chapters are student-led societies aimed at promoting mathematics and computational science among university students. Their goal is to organise chapter activities, such as
- lunch discussions about career opportunities
- lectures by guest speakers
- undergraduate competitions and social functions
- field trips to industrial laboratories or SIAM section meetings
