Our in-person Maths Circles are free drop-in sessions with exciting mathematical activities, games and puzzles. These sessions take place at James Clerk Maxwell Building, located in the University King's Building campus. Students and members of staff from the School of Mathematics are on hand to help out, with light refreshments provided.
Our Maths Circle are designed to engage people at all levels of mathematical ability.
If you like mathematics, you can come along to meet aspects of Maths you may have never encountered. If you do not quite like Maths, come along, because you may change your mind, by exploring puzzles or games you would have never associated to Maths.
Below are some feedback quotes from previous participants.
“The questions aren't the typical questions that we see in our books.”
"
We could work on tasks as a family but then helpers came round and helped us and chatted and encouraged my son. The tasks were varied and kept his interest.

Night view

苏河家园

Edinburgh Castle is the soul of the city. Stepping up the castle, as if crossing the medieval period, the ancient walls, the black ancient guns, all tell the smoke of the war. Standing on the height of the castle, overlooking the city of Edinburgh, the red tiles and green trees, the blue sea and blue sky, have a panoramic view.

I&rsquo;m a whiskey enthusiast I really loved the royal mile and whiskey experience at the whisky trail, so much of variety to try helpful and experienced staff

Calton Hill

Mountain climbing

Oo西野司oO

&quot;Bagpipes sound from afar, I only care about your news.
The castle keeps secrets for love, and I keep memories for you.&quot;
This is the location of Jay Chou&#39;s MV &quot;Obviously&quot;,
and it is also the birthplace of J.K. Rowling&#39;s creation of &quot;Harry Potter&quot;.
If you dream of a medieval city in a magical world,
then you must come here in this life.
Every building is a natural movie background,
and every corner seems to hide a secret passage to another world.
In the end, when the sunset on Calton Hill confiscated time,
Edinburgh, becoming amber that never fades, will always remain in my memory.
