Other Math Resources:
Directed Reading Program:
The Directed Reading Program is an excellent opportunity to learn about some mathematics that you will not get exposed to in your math classes. It is a great chance to practice reading and learning mathematics on your own with the support of a graduate student.
If you are interested in participating, check out the link above and submit your 2019-2020 application by December 13th. If there is a graduate student in particular that you would like to work with, we suggest that you contact them before submitting your application.
Math REU’s:
REU’s are summer research projects that take place in various subjects at different colleges around the country (and even in some other countries). These programs are typically 8-10 weeks long, and they are funded, so you usually get paid about $4000. You can find these in various mathematical disciplines. You can explore some available programs using the link below:
