Undergraduate Programs

Budapest Semesters in Mathematics Education (BSME)

Summer@BSME is a 6-week program designed for undergraduates and recent graduates interested in the learning and teaching of secondary mathematics. Participants learn about the Hungarian pedagogy in their course work. In the field experience at a mathematics camp for secondary students, they explore how the methods learned in the courses are put into practice.

More information and applications can be found on their website. You can also email Professor Ryota Matsuura or call 507-786-3821.

National Museum of Mathematics (MoMath)

Are you a college student looking for something fun and rewarding to do? MoMath offers volunteer opportunities throughout the year. Learn valuable job skills, improve your communication ability and interpersonal skills, and explore mathematical concepts -- plus, have a great time meeting new and interesting people, including top members of the mathematical community. 

MoMath has a new opportunity for graduating undergraduate math majors. The museum recently announced the launch of the Exponent Fellowship, a year-long fellowship program that will accept eight students to work with the museum. Located in New York City, the fellowship will provide graduates with opportunities to develop math communications and outreach skills, while learning from leading mathematicians in the museum's extensive network.
