Campus Internship: UK Mathematics Trust (MAPMA1105)

Are you passionate about mathematics education? Do you have experience of using LaTeX software? Do you have excellent attention to detail?

We are seeking a current University of Leeds undergraduate student to join us as a Summer Intern, to produce our annual Yearbook. 

This Yearbook will document all the work of the UK Mathematics Trust from 1 August 2018 to 31 July 2019. A Yearbook has been produced annually since 1998, and usually contains around 250-300 pages. It is sent free of charge to around 5,000 schools and volunteers participating in our activities, and is also sold on our website. It provides a valuable resource to help advance the education of young people in mathematics.

Currently, the Yearbook reaches schools during the final term of the year, as staff producing it prioritise the more urgent and immediate business. As an intern dedicated to producing this, your work will ensure that the book is sent to schools far earlier in the new academic year than usual – October rather than March – so the 700,000+ students participating in our activities will have immediate access to recent previous material. 

You will be a University of Leeds undergraduate student, in your first, second or penultimate year, with experience of using LaTeX software. You will have good communication, time management and creative skills, the ability to work well in a small team and excellent attention to detail.
