Outreach Activities & Events
Each year we offer a whole host of events and activities for maths students and teachers alike.
Maths Taster Days for A-Level students
Every year we offer several Maths Taster Days for A-Level students (or equivalent) alongside other University of London institutions. These are a great opportunity to "try out" a maths degree and get a better idea of what life as a maths student might be like before applying! All events will include two taster lectures, a transitioning to university talk, and a careers talk. You must be studying A-Level Maths or about to enter A-Level Maths to be eligible to attend a taster day. See if there are any taster days coming up.
Queen Mary Mathematics Society Conference
The Mathematics Society at Queen Mary hosts an annual conference for students interested in learning more about the power of Maths. The event usually takes place in March each year.
Queen Mary Futures
Throughout the year we contribute to Queen Mary Futures through the Mathematical and Physical Sciences strand. Designed for students who enjoy problem-solving, spotting patterns, and exploring how the world works, the programme offers inspiring opportunities to engage with mathematics and physics beyond the classroom and discover future study pathways.
Girls in Maths Taster Day
Each year we run Queen Mary’s Girls in Maths Taster Day, an inspiring event for female and non-binary students interested in mathematics. Through engaging talks, interactive activities and opportunities to meet current students and academics, participants gain a first-hand insight into studying mathematics at university and the wide range of careers it can lead to. Take a look at the event programme for 2026.
Workshops, talks and campus visits
We are able to offer a limited number of workshops and talks either in school or on our campus, for school groups of GCSE and A-Level students.
