Directed Reading Program

The City University of New York Directed Reading Program (CUNY DRP) is a semester-long program aimed at CUNY undergraduates and master's students who are interested in mathematics. The DRP provides an opportunity to learn a non-standard topic outside under the guidance of a graduate student, attend mathematically-centered events, and meet like-minded peers within the CUNY system. Throughout the semester, students will meet with their mentor on a weekly basis to discuss a selected reading. The program culminates in a poster session where students can showcase what they've learned.

The CUNY DRP aims to represent a variety of topics across mathematical disciplines, suitable for various student background levels. That means students from any major or background are encouraged to apply! Participation only requires an interest in mathematics and a commitment to the program.

The events and workshops hosted by the CUNY DRP are open for anyone to attend. See the Events page for a list of past and upcoming events.

The CUNY DRP is currently organized by Manasa Balaji, Nathaniel Kingsbury, Vincent Martinez, Eunice Ng, Ruipeng Xu, Ajmain Yamin, and Hajar Zaid.  If you are interested in becoming an organizer, please email us at cunydrp@gmail.com.
