Third Mission

The Third Mission is the set of activities with which Universities interact directly with society, alongside the missions of teaching and research.

The activities promoted by the Department of Mathematics and Applications aim to make Mathematics accessible to students, high school teachers and the general public, also through its history and foundations. This is done through a series of activities including Conferences, Workshops, Summer School, the seminar series Please Don't Delete: Math Dialogues, the day of competitions, applications and research for high school students Math Beyond the Desks and the Math Olympics preparation course.

The Department also hosts the MateMatita Centre whose mission is the Communication of Mathematics and Informal Learning, Teacher Training, and New Technologies for the Teaching of Mathematics. More information at the following link
