The WiM Directed Reading Program (DRP) initiative aims to provide undergraduate students with the opportunity to work with graduate students on a mathematical project. This project could be an introduction to cutting-edge research, setting up the groundwork for a thesis or research project, or a casual survey of an article that would be intimidating to cover on one’s own.
Prospective graduate student (mentors) applicants:
Graduate students will gain practice in project mentorship and communicating mathematics, and upon completion of the program requirements the WiM DRP award is worth $400, which distinguishes them for their mentorship experience. We expect around 20 hours of commitment during the term. In addition, this is a great way to not only explore new mathematics but also befriend new mathematicians in the faculty!
The program is open to all current graduate students in Math at every stage of their studies.
If you are interested in participating in the DRP program during the Winter 23 term, please submit a summary of your proposed reading projects and your application for DRP mentorship to this form before November 20, 2022.
You can submit your proposed directed reading projects to WWIN innovative applications as well and mention you are applying for DRP and you will run the project under the DRP program if accepted.
