Lower Level Math Courses
The following web pages for selected lower level math courses contain
primarily information for the start of the semester.
During the semester, check with your course head or
section leader to see if the site will be updated with homework
assignments, exam information, etc.
See also the Handbook (2015-2016) [PDF] from
(here).
For other math courses, check with the person teaching the course to see if a web page will be created/maintained. The FAS registrar maintains a complete listing of the faculty, courses and descriptions of math courses. |
Math Question Center
|
The Math Question Center (shortly MQC),
is a place that you can drop by to work on or ask questions about
your math homework, for classes up to the Math 21b level.
It's staffed by Course Assistants and Graduate Students
who are available to help you as you do
your homework. The MQC is also a great place to
meet and work with other people in your course. The center is typically open from 8:30 to 10:30 p.m. on Sundays through Thursdays. Students in Math 1a, 1b, 21a, and 21b are encouraged to drop by. Students in Math M may visit the Math M study center in SC 216 from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays. A staffing schedule is posted on the Math M website. For more information, visit the current MQC Web page maintained by Yu_Wen Hsu (yuwenhsu@math.harvard.edu). |

Admission and financial aid
| Information on admission and financial aid for students can be obtained from the Harvard Financial aid office web site. |
Student groups
| If you are casually interested in mathematics, the Harvard Undergraduate Math Association (HUMA) is a great place to meet other like-minded people, get some great information about grad school, summer opportunities, job opportunities. |
| If you are interested in issues of diversity and inclusivity in the department, a student group started in 2015. It has a discussion series, hosts social events and a conference every year. Check them out!. They are happy for more people to get involved. |
Math table
| The undergraduate Mathematics Colloquium (aka Math Table) sponsored by the Mathematics Department, meets every Tuesday night at 5:30 in Mather House Private Dining Rooms A & B. Its purpose is to expose students to diverse topics of pure and applied mathematics and to suggest potential Senior Thesis topics. Speakers include faculty, guest speakers, graduate students and undergraduate students. All students, irrespective of their mathematical backgrounds, are strongly encouraged to attend and/or to give talks. The two best undergraduate talks at the colloquium each year will win the endowed Rogers Prize. For more information, please contact Noam Elkies (elkies@math.harvard.edu). In the separate Math table page, upcoming talks as well as previous talks and winners can be found. |
