The Department of Mathematics at Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology Delhi (IIIT-Delhi) announces its fUndergraduate Mathematics Summer Program at IIIT-Delhi. This programme is designed for undergraduate mathematics students who are in second or third year of their undergraduate studies. This program will be completely funded by IIIT-Delhi. The participants will attend the lectures on various topics in higher mathematics. They will get the chance to talk with IIIT-Delhi faculty members about mathematics to deepen their understanding and expertise of the subject. We believe that sincere candidates will benefit from this program by having a broader perspective on higher mathematics and its applications in other scientific domains. Therefore, we strongly encourage the students - who are interested in Mathematics and hope to pursue a career in this field - to apply.
1. Crash courses on selected topics in Algebra, Analysis, Geometry & Topology, and Applied Mathematics.
2. Problem-solving sessions and group discussion.
3. Talks by experts.
Undergraduate students of 2nd and 3rd year
The selection will solely be on the basis of merit, taking into account both academic records and a recommendation letter from a mathematics Professor who knows the individual well.
During the training at IIIT-Delhi campus, meals and accommodation will be provided to all candidates. Travel support will be provided to all outstation candidates.
Coming Soon..
