Mini-Course
The Department regularly hosts mini-courses, bringing together researchers from around the world and students from Atlantic Canada. In 2002, 2003 and 2004, the AARMS Summer Schools were held at this Department. Since its creation in 2006, the Atlantic Algebra Centre has organized a number of mini-courses on various topics in algebra.
