UCSB Math Circle

University of California, Santa Barbara

Registration for the Winter Math Circle is open!



Mathematical Circles bring mathematicians and mathematical scientists into direct contact with pre-college students.

The goal is to engage highly-motivated students in a collaborative environment and foster the exploration and discovery of mathematical concepts that are beyond traditional curriculum.

Math circles were originally inspired by the Eastern European problem discussion approach to math education.
   




The UCSB Math Circle for Junior High School students started on October 2, 2009.  Next year we expect to also offer a math circle for High School students.

Meetings will be held  from January 8 to March 9, on Fridays from 4:00 to 5:30 pm at the College of Creative Studies, Old Little Theatre, Room 164B at the UCSB campus. (Follow the link to see directions to the location.)

The UCSB Math Circle is generously supported by the Educational Advancement Foundation and private donations, and works in collaboration with faculty from Dos Pueblos High School.
