19th MATHEMATICS TRAINING AND TALENT SEARCH PROGRAMME Funded By National Board For Higher Mathematics 19th MATHEMATICS TRAINING AND TALENT SEARCH PROGRAMME – (FUNDED BY NATIONAL BOARD FOR HIGHER MATHEMATICS) Aim: The aim of the programme is to expose bright young students to the excitement of doing mathematics, to promote independent mathematical thinking and to prepare them for higher aspects of mathematics. Academic Programme: The programme will be at three levels: Level 0, Level I and Level II. In Level 0 there will be courses in Linear Algebra, Analysis & Number Theory/ Combinatorics. In Levels i and II there will be courses in Algebra, Analysis and Topology. There will be seminars by students at ail Levels. The faculty will be active mathematicians with a commitment to teaching and from various leading institutions. The aim of the instructions is not to give routine lectures and presentation of theorem-proofs but to stimulate the participants to think and discover mathematical results. Eligibility Level 0: First year undergraduate students with Mathematics as one of their subjects. Level I: Second year undergraduate students with Mathematics as one of their subjects. Level II: Final year undergraduate 6 First year postgraduate students with Mathematics as one of their subjects.
