Under this programme, MSF invites leading mathematicians of the world to Delhi to lecture and interact with students and faculty. Visitors lecture on their own contributions, the personal experiences that have shaped their lives and work, and on aspects of the history of mathematics related to their work. The lectures are meant to be accessible to undergraduates --- over the years they have received a tremendous response from both students and faculty. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
A striking aspect of this event is that students interact with our visitors in an extremely informal manner --- over breakfasts, lunches & dinners; or during walks in the city. This provides a 'human face' to academics and has motivated many students. |
