"What can I do with my A level Mathematics?"
Year 12 Taster Days
at Plymouth University
Tuesday 30th June and Wednesday 8th July 2020

As part of our outreach and enrichment activities in the Mathematics Department at Plymouth University, we are running two Year 12 University Taster Days on Tuesday 30th June and Wednesday 8th July 2020.

The day will consist of a number of hands-on interactive workshops on a variety of topics. There are a number of workshops covering all aspects of mathematics including pure mathematics, statistics, physics and applications of mathematics to the different areas of engineering and computing.

The aim of the day is to provide your Year 12 students with a taste of what is on offer at University to those with an A level in mathematics.

The day will start at 10:00 and finish at 15:00 and will be held on the main campus of Plymouth University (PL4 8AA). There is no cost for the day.
You are invited to bring a group of year 12 students to this event, the group will ideally need to be accompanied by an adult/adults from school who will be responsible for them during the day. However, if providing an adult is a barrier to the students attending it may be possible to allocate one of my undergraduate students to the group, please contact me to discuss this option.

If you would like to bring a group of students to this event please complete the application form below.
