Math for America hosts a variety of events in New York City.  In addition to our Professional Development & Outreach Group,  we host seminars, lectures and workshops throughout the year.  Events on this calendar are free and open to the public.  Interested participants should register here by clicking on the Register button.

Robert Lang is an origami pioneer - using math and engineering principles to fold intricate designs that are beautiful and, sometimes, very useful.  The intersections between origami, mathematics, and science occur at many levels and include many fields of the latter. These intersections can be grouped into roughly three categories: 

• Origami mathematics, which includes the mathematics that describes the underlying laws of origami;
• Computational origami, which comprises algorithms and theory devoted to the solution of origami problems by mathematical means;
• Origami technology, which is the application of origami (and folding in general) to the solution of problems arising in engineering, industrial design, and technology in general.

Learn more about Robert Lang and his origami at his website.  Registration information for the July 1st event will be available soon.
