Lectures Proposed by the Board of the Faculty of Mathematics
MATHEMATICAL TRIPOS
Lectures proposed by the Board of the Faculty of Mathematics. Graduates of the University who arenot reading for any University Examination may attend without payment any lectures proposed bythe Faculty Board of Mathematics.
Part IA students are recommended to attend the induction session which will be held from 9.30 a.m. to10.45 a.m. on Wednesday 7 October 2009, in the Cockcroft Lecture Theatre.
A meeting will be held for all Part IA students on Friday 30 April 2010 at 2.00 p.m. in Mill Lane Room 3to discuss examinations and examination techniques.
Note that the non-examinable courses on Topics in the History of Mathematics will be of interest to allstudents reading the Mathematical Tripos. Full details are given below.
Lectures for Part IA of the Mathematical Tripos will be held in the Cockcroft Lecture Thealre unlessotherwise stated.
