SHARE WITH STUDENTS: Fall 2019 Emerging Scholars Program Information now available – downloadable flyer!
The Emerging Scholars Program (ESP) offers intensive mathematics workshops (Math 122, 179, 182, 211, 294) for students enrolled in corresponding math courses. Participants work collaboratively in small groups on math problems that emphasize the key ideas of the corresponding math course. Additional homework is not assigned in the workshop. Specially trained Math TAs and AMP Scholars facilitate the workshops.
Workshops are open to all UIC students and carry one hour of S/U credit. Students register for the ESP workshop section and then contact the department (see below) to be given permission to enroll in the corresponding math lecture and discussion.
Statistical study results find participation in the workshops improves student performance and increases the probability of earning an A or B in the required mathematics courses.
