Applied Mathematics' K-12 Outreach Programs

Applied Mathematics Summer Institute
Courses for Secondary Mathematics Teachers

The Department of Applied Mathematics at The University of Colorado at Boulder is pleased to continue our outreach efforts. Each summer, we offer content-based professional development workshops that are designed to provide an in-depth study of content in addition to hands-on applications that enhance understanding of the content. Our workshops will continue into our seventh summer in 2006 and will run from June 19-29, 2006.

For more information, contact Anne Dougherty at (303) 492-4011.
