Project Fermat

A small volunteer initiative helping students in underserved schools across Delhi NCR build a foundation in olympiad mathematics, starting in Classes 6 to 8 and expanding up to Class 12, along the route from NMTC and IOQM to RMO and INMO. Less about solving a particular problem, more about learning how to look at one.

Volunteer as a tutor

We're looking for undergraduates, senior school students, and teachers who are genuinely good at mathematics and want to teach it: people who'd rather spend a Saturday on a hard problem than almost anything else. No formal teaching experience needed. Reach out with a short introduction and your mathematical background:

Open for grants

Project Fermat is run entirely by volunteers, and we're open to grants and sponsorship from foundations, CSR programmes and individuals who care about mathematics education. Funding would go toward olympiad registration fees for every student who wants to sit IOQM, support for students who qualify for RMO and beyond, printed problem sets and books, volunteer travel to sessions, and computing costs for Fermat Lab, our planned research project.
