Overview:

The Department of Mathematics at the University of Toronto is proud to offer a mentorship program pairing high school students interested in the field of mathematics study and research, with graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and faculty in the field. Students will be working on a math research project of their interests under the guidance of their mentor.

The program begins with an opening reception to meet all participants in January and ends with a closing ceremony in May to showcase their project to all mentees, mentors and family. Attendance is mandatory for the opening reception (January) and closing ceremony (May). These sessions will be hosted in-person at the University of Toronto St. George campus.

Mentees will meet with their mentors on a regular basis either virtually or at the downtown location of U of T on a schedule that fits both of them about once or twice per month.
