The Eugene Math Circle is an after-school program for 2nd-12th grade students who have a passion for math and want to delve deeper into the subject, exploring exciting topics that are not typically covered in the school curriculum. The Math Circle offers classes for five different age groups, meeting on Wednesday and Thursday evenings throughout the academic year. During these sessions, students investigate different mathematical topics through problem-solving under the guidance of experienced instructors. On a typical day, students engage in activities such as brainstorming and solving challenging math problems individually or collaboratively, presenting their findings, or even playing strategy games. The Math Circle teachers are members of the Mathematics Department. Thanks to the support of the NSF and the Survival and Flourishing Fund, students from low-income families can participate in the program at a reduced or no cost.
There are 10 weekly meetings each term. This Winter, the Upper Division II and III classes begin on January 10 and the Elementary I, II, and Upper Division I classes on January 11. The last meetings for the Upper Division II and III classes are on March 13 and for all other classes on March 14. The application forms for the Math Circle can be found here. Please note that if the class your child is applying to is full, they will be put on the waiting list.
