The Teachers' Enrichment Workshop (TEW) series is a programme of the National Centre for Mathematics (NCM), which sponsors instructional schools and workshops at several levels in various places across the country. It is meant for college teachers to revisit and update their content knowledge. The lectures will cover specific topics which are relevant for what teachers themselves teach in their classrooms. An important component of the workshop is the discussion hour during which the teachers will have opportunities to get their doubts cleared and work out exercises, both routine and advanced.
This Workshop on Galois Theory and Complex Analysis is meant primarily for Mathematics teachers of Govt./Aided Arts and Science Colleges in Kerala. The participants will be provided accommodation on request.
