Expand your mathematical world

AMSI Summer School is an annual national training and networking event for honours and postgraduate students in the mathematical sciences and cognate disciplines, early career researchers and industry professionals looking to upskill.

Celebrating its 22nd year, Summer School 2024 returns to a four-week in person event hosted by Australian National University from 8 January – 2 February (virtual participation also available).

Connect with peers, researchers and potential future employers while developing your mathematical skills. You can even take a subject for credit!

Applicants are strongly encouraged to attend in person to maximise their experience, however, can opt to participate online. Please note not all elements of the program may be available remotely (e.g. social events, group work etc.)
