The Eugene Math Circle is a vibrant program for students who are passionate about mathematics and science. We welcome young minds from all backgrounds who are eager to explore the beauty and excitement of mathematics beyond the traditional classroom.
In our weekly gatherings, students discover:
Our mission is to:
Guided by experienced mathematicians and educators, our students develop critical thinking skills, mathematical intuition, and problem-solving abilities that will serve them well in any future path—whether as mathematicians, scientists, engineers, or leaders in other fields.
Definitely apply! You are welcome to join at any time provided there is space and the consecutive lessons are independent of each other (as is often the case in Upper Division classes). Otherwise, you'll be put on the waiting list for the next term. We love to meet new people interested in math!
Absolutely! As many practicing research mathematicians will tell you, it often takes several years to become an experienced problem solver. It's completely fine (and expected) if you need to see a particular topic or discuss a particular idea several times before it starts to make sense. Keep in mind that the material discussed in EMC sessions is advanced and non-traditional.
Parents can contribute to our community in several ways:
Your support helps us maintain our commitment to making mathematics education accessible to all students, regardless of their financial circumstances.
Your donation helps us maintain affordable tuition and provide scholarships to ensure the Math Circle remains accessible to all students.
