Wednesday 25th June 2008, 9.00am - 3.30pm
Every two years, the Department of Mathematics and Statistics holds a one-day maths fair at the University of Melbourne. The target audience consists of Year 11 and 12 students and their teachers. The main objectives of the fair are:- To promote the importance and broad applications of mathematics and problem solving skills
- To raise awareness of career opportunities for mathematics and statistics graduates.
The program is designed to both engage as well as inform. There are two key events: Mathematicians Exposed! and the Mathematics in Industry and Technology (MIT) Challenge.
