The treatment of topics will be semi-rigorous: in coursework, students will prove the simpler results but not the more advanced results. Students will not receive an official grade for this course but will take grade quizzes throughout the course.RegistrationAlthough the program is required for all PhD and MACRM students, they will need to register. Please read important information in the Schedule section below about times, instructional modalities, and vaccination requirements before registering. ScheduleThe Mathematical Methods program will occur from September 2 through September 19, 2025. Coursework will be scheduled for weekdays, with each day will include lecture-style reviews of mathematical concepts and a recitation session. A finalized schedule will be released in the summer.Additional orientation programming will also be offered during the program to ensure that participants have a smooth transition into Harris.Curious what will be covered in Mathematical Methods?
