Mathematics & Computer Science at Wesleyan

The UC Berkeley Geometry, Topology, and Operator Algebras RTG Summer Research Program for Undergraduates 2012 is a unique 8 week program for up to 12 undergraduates to explore cutting edge mathematics and get involved with active research problems. Participating students will complete an intensive four week course on either contact and symplectic geometry or homological algebra and then investigate open-ended problems in these fields. In their free time, students will have the opportunity to explore Berkeley, San Francisco, and the wonderful Bay Area.

The program is supported by the National Science Foundation RTG (Research Training Group) in Geometry, Topology, and Operator Algebras, and funding is only available for US citizens and permanent residents.

For more information and to apply, please visit: www.math.berkeley.edu/~gardiner/berkeleymathsummer.html. This program will be extremely competitive, and students should notice the application deadline of March 12, 2012.
