Who are Marcus' Marvellous Mathemagicians?

Marcus' Marvellous Mathemagicians (M3) is a group of current maths students at the University of Oxford championed by Professor Marcus du Sautoy, the Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science.

I really enjoyed the workshop. It was fun learning how maths can help you win monopoly! - Participant, Maths of Games Workshop

What do they do?

Communicate maths!

The M3 run workshops, activities and give talks about maths to a wide range of audiences. Previous events have included fun workshops for school children aged 13-17, interactive lectures for adults, combining maths and art at the Radical Nature Exhibit at the Barbican and entertaining the crowds at the Royal Berkshire Show in Newbury.

The M3 run activities designed by Professor Marcus du Sautoy but also create their own workshops for specialist audiences.

How do I book them?

Anyone can book the Mathemagicians. Contact us stating who you are and your requirements. We need as much information regarding dates and venues as possible, especially if the group need to create new activities.

Please remember that studies come first for this talented group of students, especially during term time. Please bear this in mind when making your request. There is no formal charge for the activities, however we do ask that you pay the travel expenses of the mathemagicians and the cost of the consumable resources required by each activity.
