IAYM Experience of E-member

Dear all

Following is what Nitin wishes to share with us:

I, Nitin Agrawal intend to share my overwhelming experience during summer internship programme. I got an opportunity to be among 72 heads selected from high school to graduate level from various parts of India attending a summer internship programme at Delhi Public School, R.K. Puram organised by Mathematical Sciences Foundation from 1st June to 27th June. Before I shall proceed further, I would like to convey my special gratitude to Mr. Amit Bajaj and Mrs. Rekha Grover for their support, encouragement and motivation.

During the programme, all of us were divided in groups as per the various projects allotted to us. I worked on role of mathematics in Encryption i.e.transmitting data securely and area related to circles.We had lecture sessions with eminent personalities like Dr.Sanjeev agrawal(Associate Professor, Department of Mathematics, St.Stephen's College) ,Dr. Amber Habib(Professor, Mathematical Sciences Foundation) , Dr. Lal Mohan Saha (Professor,Mathematical Sciences Foundation) in the field of mathematics and physics. We also gained profound knowledge on various mathematical applications such as Mathematica , Microsoft Excel , Flash , win plot etc. The programme was all about fusion of young minds to develop something new and innovative and therefore, the programme was named Inviting All Young Minds.

Faculty members of mathematical sciences foundation were extraordinarily encouraging and supportive. They focussed on “out of the box”. We did research and accordingly prepared our presentations. We were constantly looked after by Dr. Dinesh Singh, Director, University of Delhi South Campus and his guidance helped a lot. On the last day of the programme we were awarded our certificates and a stipend of Rs. 5000.Although the programme was quite hectic owing to long working hours, I really enjoyed it and gathered considerably good amount of knowledge. I would like to owe my gratitude towards Mathematical sciences foundation and my teachers.The programme is organised every year for high school to college level scholars and I hope that many of the young minds over here would like to satisfy their thirst and be a part of the programme next year.
