Mathematics Field Days

For New England High School Students

Each Fall, the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Boston University offers area high school students and their teachers the opportunity to come to the Boston University campus for a full day of mathematical activities. Students learn about current topics in mathematics and statistics, including fractals, chaos, the Mandelbrot set and Julia sets, and much more.

In 2007, the Mathematics Field Days will be held on Tuesday, October 16 and Tuesday, October 23. Hope you can join us!

Since 1996, the Field Days have been held in various locations, including Cape Cod, Hartford CT, Portland ME, and the Bay Area in California. We plan to expand this program in the future. If you are interested in hosting such an event at your institution, send email to Cynthia Brossman at cab@bu.edu.
