THE NANYANG MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY 2008

First set up in 1990 and recognised as a college CCA, the Nanyang Mathematical Society (NMS) aimed to promote the enjoyment of mathematics as well as to provide a common platform for mathematical exchanges.

However, a turn of events led to the closure of the NMS in the year 2000, 10 years after its inception.

This year, the mathematics department decided to revive the NMS with the same ardent spirit with which it was first conceived. The main difference is that the new NMS is now owned by the mathematics department instead of being a college CCA in the past. In other words, it can be regarded as the enrichment arm of the mathematics department.

Interested students are invited to sign up as members of the NMS with Mr Leong Chong Ming from the mathematics department. They will help to organise enrichment activities like mathematical talks, competitions and excursions on an ad hoc basis. This means that members will not be required to attend regular meetings but will only be called upon to help when the need arises.

We sincerely look forward to your keen participation and with our concerted efforts, bring the learning of mathematics to a much higher plane.
