PROMYS
PROMYS is a six-week summer program at Boston University designed to encourage strongly motivated high school students to explore in depth the creative world of mathematics in a supportive community of peers, counselors, research mathematicians, and visiting scientists.
The Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI) and PROMYS are offering new advanced seminars for returning PROMYS students. Returning students also engage in original research under the mentorship of professional mathematicians.
PROMYS for Teachers
PROMYS for Teachers is a collaboration of Boston University's Department of Mathematics with the Education Development Center in Waltham, Massachusetts. Together we are working to promote what we call a "culture of exploration" in secondary school mathematics classrooms.
CMI-PROMYS International Alliance - Twelve Students from Europe have been selected as fully-funded CMI-PROMYS Scholars for 2013
PROMYS is delighted to announce that the newly formed CMI-PROMYS International Alliance, an expansion of the long standing PROMYS partnership with the Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI), is fully funding the 2013 PROMYS participation of twelve European students. The twelve CMI-PROMYS Scholars have been selected from a large and exceptionally strong pool of scholarship applicants from all over Europe. Scholarship finalists were interviewed by PROMYS alumni in Europe. The CMI-PROMYS Scholars will follow up their six weeks at PROMYS with participation in the one-week residential Oxford Masterclasses in Combinatorics, at Oxford University, England.
