The Metroplex Math Circle meets in room 2.201 of the Engineering and Computer Sciences building on the campus of the University of Texas at Dallas (corner of Rutford and Drive A). Regular sessions are held Saturday afternoons from 2:00 to 4:00. Please see the current year schedule on this website for details on each session.
Eligibility
Metroplex Math Circle is intended primarily for students who are 14 and older and show a strong desire to go beyond a standard high school curriculum. Many of these students will use their experience at MMC to excel in national math competitions or to better prepare them for work at elite universities. Younger students with demonstrated mathematical talents are also welcome to participate in the MMC lectures.
Mission
The Metroplex Math Circle is a program designed to attract talented students to mathematics and to provide an accelerated avenue to develop students’ mathematical and problem-solving skills.
Specifically, the goals of the Metroplex Math Circle are:
- To draw students to mathematics and to motivate them to excel in the subject;
- To draw students to the program who are economically disadvantaged and who might otherwise not attend;
- To prepare students for mathematical contests;
- To encourage students to pursue careers linked to mathematics, including careers in science, research, business or academia.
The Metroplex Math Circle will achieve these goals by:
- Exposing middle and high school students to exciting mathematics presented by research mathematicians, mathematics educators and internationally seasoned Olympiad problem-solvers;
- Providing extracurricular opportunities to extend mathematical knowledge and skill well beyond the school curriculum;
- Giving opportunities to students to meet and work with other students of similar or superior math abilities and aspirations;
- Creating a forum for testing students’ math competition skills

I have some advanced math teachers in Richardson ISD that would like to attend – probably not on a regular basis, but when it fits into their schedule. From what I read, this looks like it is acceptable. If not, please let me know. Thanks.
Yes, please encourage them to come. The first meeting of each semester should be of particular interest to teachers and parents.
The format of MMC allows for visitors to come to particular meetings or parts of meetings as their schedules allow.
My son is grade 2 but he is doing Pre-Algebra now n I would like him to join MMC can you send me the link or do you have any suggestions for me?!
I am interested in attending the Metroplex Math Circle. Could you please let me know the cost of the program.
Thanks

For the 2008-2009 school year, there is no cost to attend Metroplex Math Circle. The program is entirely underwritten by UT Dallas.
My daughter took the AMC 8 this year. About how long do we have to wait to receive results?
It looks like the AMC 8 can be administered through the first week of December so I wouldn’t expect results back until the middle of the month at least. Here is the AMC web page: http://www.unl.edu/amc/e-exams/e4-amc08/amc8.shtml
Do the progrma continue in Summer; I do not see a schedule for May. What is the process of enrolling a student/ can the student just come in?
Metroplex Math Circle will begin again in the fall. Enrollment is open to all interested students, just attend as many lectures as you are able. In the mean time feel free to join our e-mail list.

Hi, I was wondering if there is any cost to attend the Math Circle.
No, Sid, there is no cost to attend the Metroplex Math Circle. We are generously sponsored by UT Dallas.
My son is in second grade. He has strong interest in Math. Do you know any campus that offers Math club for younger age (8 years old)? Thank you.
Cameron, your son wouldn’t be the only elementary age student visiting Metroplex Math Circle, but I’m not aware of any local clubs that cater to that age range. Online you may want to check out the new site by Art of Problem Solving called Beast Academy (http://beastacademy.com/)
How can I find out the location for AIME II 2013 in Dallas area? Thanks.

Can high school mathematics teachers also attend? Tom
Yes, Tom, teachers are more than welcome!
Yippee!
Hello we are new to Texas, and are interested for our 6th grader to participate in enrichment and challenging activities. Will he benefit from coming to your sessions? What days/ times, and fees if any? What is the format of the sessions? (instructor led?)
Hello, I am going to be a junior and want to find some good training for the AIME to get into USAMO so I was wondering if this would be a good place for me to go to hone my skills. Also, is there any cost for attending the circles or signing up or do I just go to the session directly?
I’m relaly into it, thanks for this great stuff!
I am not seeing 2017 meeting dates posted. Can you please let me know the next meeting date for 2017?
Hey! I’m a sophomore in Frisco ISD and would like to join this. I love math!! Please email me and tell me how I can join as well as what you guys do at meetings. Thanks!
