Women in Mathematics Taster Course

The Women in Mathematics taster course is an annual event held within the Mathematics department to encourage more women to study Mathematics at university. It has been running for more than 25 years.

Women in Mathematics

Those invited to attend the event are currently studying A level Mathematics (or equivalent qualifications) and are seriously considering taking a degree in or involving Mathematics.

The events consist of prefentations from members of staff and PhD students covering a variety of methematical topics. In recent years there have included Professor Christina Pagel and our curent Head of Department, Professor Helen Wilson. The day also includes problem solving sessions, and, most importantly, an opportunity to meet a few of our own undergraduates and talk to them about thier experiences of studying mathematics. 

Advice and guidance was also provided on the admissions process and future career options.

You can find details of our next Women in Mathematics taster day and book a place by visiting the Careers Group, University of London.
