Aim :
The aim of the Summer workshop is to motivate students to take up Mathematics for research. We have invited eminent mathematicians of our country to speak in this workshop. We also want to create awareness about Mathematics education, in general. Thus, keeping this in mind we have requested each mathematician to be available in the afternoon to interact with audience. This workshop is continuation of the similar one held last year.
