Do you know students who possess mathematical abilities beyond their years?
The USQ Mathematics Enrichment Program is available to students in years 9 and 10 and aims to:
- encourage further studies in mathematics;
- challenge students to solve problems using mathematics; and
- help students perform at a high level in mathematics.
A confirmation email will be sent to the student to confirm their registration, provide the Zoom link needed to access the sessions and details on how students will gain access to the program content and materials to successfully complete the Maths Enrichment program.
Students who have registered to partake in the Maths Enrichment Program will automatically be enrolled in the course a few days before the first session to gain access. Students will be sent an email when this enrolment takes place, making use of their email address as a username and prompting them to securely change their password.
For further information regarding the workshops, please email outreach.events@usq.edu.au.
