UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA

Summer School of Pure Mathematics.

During the summer vacation of 1899, the following courses in Pure Mathematics
will be offered:

I. Undergraduate Mathematics.

The courses in Undergraduate Mathematics will be arranged so as to cover
the subjects usually embraced in a College course in Mathematics: that is, they
will consist of:

(a) A course in Algebra, Geometry and (elementary) Trigonometry;

(b) A course in Trigonometry and Conic Sections; and

(c) A course in Differential and Integral Calculus.

These courses would be advantageous to teachers wishing to review certain
subjects in Undergraduate Mathematics, or to students desiring to complete
their preparation for entering one of the undergraduate classes in an University
or School of Technology. The instruction in these courses will be largely
individual in its character.

II. Graduate Mathematics.

The course in Graduate Mathematics will consist of lectures on topics of
special interest in the departments of Differential Equations, Modern Higher
Geometry (Projective Geometry, Geometry of Curves and Surfaces, etc.), and
the applications of Lie's Transformation Groups to these subjects.

This course would be advantageous to teachers and graduate students who
wish to become acquainted with some of the more important discoveries of
Modern Mathematics: and who desire some indications as to the training
necessary to lead up to independent research work.

Each of the courses will consist of thirty lectures, beginning July 1st, and
extending over about two months.

The fee for tuition in one course will be $30, and for each additional
course, $20.

Board can be had near the University, or on the grounds, at from $16 to $20
a month, for meals, lodging and servants' attendance.

J. M. PAGE,
Associate Professor of Pure Mathematics.
