Emulating famous Eastern European models, the program aims at drawing kids to mathematics, preparing them for mathematical contests, introducing them to the wonders of beautiful mathematical theories, and encouraging them to undertake future careers linked with mathematics, whether as mathematicians, mathematics educators, economists, or business entrepeneurs.

Three Parallel Sessions in 2009
Berkeley Math Circle plans on splitting a number of the sessions in 2009-2010 into two groups: "BMC Beginner" and "BMC Advanced". For each of the sessions, students will be able to choose which one to attend based on their experience with math (not their year in school). Usually, students who attended Berkeley Math Circle for two or more years should attend "BMC Advanced". The first session will be a joint one on September 8th, 2009, from 6-8pm in 740 Evans. In addition to BMC Beginner and BMC Advanced, during the Fall 2009 we will have BMC Elementary for younger students in grades 1-3.
The first session for the elementary group will be on September 8, 2009, from 6 to 7pm in 891 Evans.
