Math-Soc and the Mathematics Department at King's College have organised these annual student weekend gatherings at Cumberland Lodge since the early 1950s.
They are a great opportunity to learn about and enjoy facets of Mathematics that you would not normally come across in your curriculum - all in a spectacular setting, and yet a welcoming and relaxed environment, with good food provided. Have a look at the Cumberland Lodge Web-Page, or connect to them through Facebook.
These weekends are also a great opportunity to meet, mingle and discuss with fellow students, staff, and speakers.
Topics covered during these weekends have included fun and recreational Mathematics, themes of current
societal relevance, the role of Mathematics in the work place, science in the media, History or Philosophy
of Mathematics, and more. To get an impression, have a look at
last years' programme. Better
