Grad Program Open House
The School of Mathematics Graduate Program is happy to announce its annual Open House for prospective graduate students to be held on April 5, 2008. All interested prospective students are welcome to attend; invitations will be sent to selected domestic applicants.
Participants will learn how our programs work and what it's like to study mathematics and be a teaching assistant here. They will meet faculty and current graduate students in both formal and informal settings.
Watch this site for more details as the schedule is developed.
