The Mathematical Society of the Philippines invites you to participate in its Summer Upgrading Program for College Mathematics Teachers (SUPCOM 2008) on May 26-27, 2008 at the Science Education Complex (SEC Bldg.), Ateneo de Manila University, Katipunan Rd, Loyola Heights, Quezon City.

SUPCOM aims to help teachers of college-level mathematics upgrade their knowledge, sharpen their mathematical skills, and enrich their teaching techniques. This year's SUPCOM will be on Mathematical Investigations and will cover topics in Number Theory, Graph Theory, Geometry and Analysis.  We hope that this training will be especially valuable to those who teach college mathematics for science, engineering, computer science and information technology students.  This is also open to High School teachers who handle mathematical investigation projects.  

The lecturers for SUPCOM 2008 include:

            1. Dr. Ian June Garces

                Mathematics Department, Ateneo de Manila University           

            2. Dr. Emmanuel Cabral

                Mathematics Department, Ateneo de Manila University

            3. Dr. Richard Lemence

                    Institute of Mathematics, UP Diliman

The registration fee is  PhP 1,500. This will cover materials and lunch. 

SUPCOM 2008 is officially  endorsed by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED).

Registration will be on May 26, 2008, 8:00-9:00 AM. To ensure your slot, please pre-register by sending an email to Jumela Sarmiento <jumela@math.admu.edu.ph > before May 19, 2008.  If you need further information, please get in touch with:
