Expand your mathematical world

AMSI Summer School is an annual national training and networking event for honours and postgraduate students in the mathematical sciences and related disciplines, early career researchers and industry professionals looking to upskill.

Celebrating its 24th year, Summer School 2026 will be hosted by Monash University from 12 January – 7 February (virtual participation also available).

Connect with peers, researchers and potential future employers while developing your mathematical skills. You can even take a subject for credit!

Applicants are strongly encouraged to attend in person to maximise their experience, however, can opt to participate online. Please note, while AMSI and Monash University will endeavour to provide the best experience possible for virtual participants, not all elements of the program will be available remotely, and some online functions may be limited.
