Math 197 internship program

At UC San Diego, Math 197 is the Department of Mathematics version of AIP 197, the course corresponding to external internships. I am currently the department's Math 197 supervisor; as such, all requests to enroll in Math 197 should be directed to me. (Other department faculty have been instructed to redirect Math 197 inquiries to me.)

Starting in 2025, the Department of Mathematics will offer a more structured version of Math 197 for summer internships, modeled on CSE 197. This will also include the opportunity to participate in the CSE Internship Symposium. Watch this space for more details.

What to do before enrolling in Math 197

These instructions apply regardless of which term(s) you plan to enroll in Math 197.

Starting in summer 2025: After your enrollment is confirmed, you will receive (via your UCSD email address) an invitation link to join the Math 197 Zulip discussion server. Please do this as soon as possible so that I can provide you with updates as needed.

The CSE Internship Symposium

Every fall quarter, CSE (the Department of Computer Science and Engineering) holds an Internship Symposium at which CSE 197 students have the opportunity to meet each other and present their work in a poster session. By special arrangement, Math 197 students who will be in San Diego in the fall (enrolled or not) are also eligible and strongly encouraged to participate; I will provide signup information when I receive it.
