Undergraduate Programs

Budapest Semesters in Mathematics Education (BSME)

Budapest Semesters in Mathematics Education (BSME) is designed for undergraduates and recent graduates interested in the learning and teaching of secondary mathematics. BSME was conceived by the founders of Budapest Semesters in Mathematics (BSM), and the two programs share a common goal--to experience the mathematical and general culture of Hungary. BSME is specifically intended for students who are not only passionate about mathematics, but also the teaching of mathematics.

Program Highlights:

  • Spend a semester in Budapest and learn from Hungarian teacher scholars.
  • Study the Hungarian approach to learning and teaching, based on problem solving, mathematical creativity, and communication.
  • Explore the city of Budapest, located on the Danube River, with its abundant cultural offerings and beautiful historical sights.

They also welcome recent graduates to apply, including current seniors and in-service teachers.

REDUCED TUITION: BSME is offering a reduced tuition rate of $5,345 per semester for Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 semesters (subject to change without notifying Barnard). 

Applications for Summer 2022, Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 are currently being accepted. The applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, so students are encouraged to apply early! 

More information and applications can be found on their website. You can also email Professor Ryota Matsuura or call 507-786-3821.

National Museum of Mathematics (MoMath)

Are you a college student looking for something fun and rewarding to do? MoMath offers volunteer opportunities throughout the year. Learn valuable job skills, improve your communication ability and interpersonal skills, and explore mathematical concepts -- plus, have a great time meeting new and interesting people, including top members of the mathematical community. 

MoMath has a new opportunity for graduating undergraduate math majors. The museum recently announced the launch of the Exponent Fellowship, a year-long fellowship program that will accept eight students to work with the museum. Located in New York City, the fellowship will provide graduates with opportunities to develop math communications and outreach skills, while learning from leading mathematicians in the museum's extensive network.
