Introduction to Mathematics at Rutgers - IMR 2007
Mathematics Graduate Program
A mini-conference for entering graduate students
All lectures will be in Hill 705. The food will be available in the
lounge, Hill 703.
This program is presented by faculty and
current graduate students to provide a
review and fill in gaps in
some background expected in standard courses,
and to get an idea of the research being done by current students
for their dissertations. It is also an opportunity for new students
to meet each other and to get acquainted with some
continuing graduate students and faculty members. All entering
Ph.D. Students are strongly encouraged to attend.
Lectures will give simple examples and will stress the foundational
importance of the topics. Connections among areas of
mathematics and applications will be emphasized whenever
possible. The presentations will be neither too technical nor
too rapid. We believe that all of the lectures will be useful to all
of the students.
"Glimpses" will be given by graduate students of their work in some
prominent research areas of the department. We also hope students
will enjoy the recreational opportunites provided.
