The Colorado Math Circle tied for second place in round two of the 2009-2010 ARML Power Contest, finishing in seventh place overall. As one of the top ten teams, we will be presented with a trophy at the ARML Competition in June.
Congratulations to Sam Elder who ranked among the top twenty-five in the 2009
William Lowell Putnam Mathematics Competition! A former math circle and Colorado ARML team member, Sam is now an undergraduate at Caltech.
The CU-Boulder Outreach Committee has awarded the Colorado Math Circle $8000 per year for the academic years 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 in recognition of “the ongoing commitment you demonstrate for extending exceptional teaching, research and/or creative work into Colorado’s communities”. We greatly appreciate the generous financial support we have received from the Outreach Committee and Department of Applied Mathematics these past few years.
Interested in broadening your mathematical knowledge and sharpening your analytical thinking? Join the Colorado Math Circle for exciting math talks and problem solving sessions hosted by the University of Colorado at Boulder. Speakers will include math professors and mathematicians from around the state. Topics are expected to include number theory, combinatorics, probability, geometry, and group theory.
The Euler Group is intended for advanced high school students. It will meet throughout the year to work on problem solving, focusing on topics outside the standard math curriculum.
The Galois Group is intended for advanced middle school students. It will meet throughout the year to work on problem solving. Recommended background: high school algebra. (For students not yet in sixth grade, parents should before attending.)
You may attend any meeting without pre-registering but if you would like to add your name to the Colorado Math Circle mailing list, please complete this registration form.
Check our calendar for the 2009–10 meeting schedule.
Meetings will take place in the CU-Boulder Engineering Center or Duane Physics Building. (See driving directions.) The classroom location will change from month to month so please check our calendar for the correct room number.
We will be preparing for the 2010 ARML Competition throughout the year. In May 2009 thirty students from fifteen different schools represented Colorado at the national competition. Colorado placed 28th in the U.S., out of 130 regional teams. In 2006 the Colorado ARML Team won first place in the B Division, outscoring over 80 teams from around the country and abroad. <more>
Sophie Math is a weeklong summer workshop designed to introduce middle school girls to the fascinating world of mathematics. <more>
There is no fee for participating in the Colorado Math Circle. We are generously supported by the University of Colorado at Boulder Outreach Committee and the CU-Boulder Department of Applied Mathematics. Special thanks to Drs. Anne Dougherty and Congming Li for sponsoring our math circle.
