Directed Reading Program (DRP)

The Directed Reading Program (DRP) is a program which pairs undergraduate students interested in research with graduate students in the appropriate field. The purpose of the program is to give undergraduate students an opportunity to connect with graduate students who can give them a taste for graduate-level research projects and reading assignments, as well as give them advice for their transition from undergraduate to graduate school.

Soup and Science

Soup and Science is held for one week at the start of each fall and winter term. Each day at lunch, undergraduate science students are invited to see and hear some of our coolest professors give short presentations about their research. Then as you mingle over lunch, you
will be able to find out more about their research and how you can participate. Come and discover some of the opportunities that exist both within and outside your own departments.

Equity in Math

This is a group of students and staff from the Math and Stats department who want to learn about issues of equity, diversity and inclusion in the mathematical sciences, in education, and beyond. Various activities are offered: a reading group, workshops, etc. You may join the mailing list here (you will need to have McGill's VPN or be on campus), or email rosalie.belanger-rioux [at] mcgill.ca to stay up-to-date on events.
