On December 14, the closing ceremony and delivery of certificates of the Stimulus of Mathematical Talent (ESTALMAT) organized by the Faculty of Science and Technology in collaboration with the Ministry of Education was held at the General Auditorium of the University of Azuay.

Francisco Salgado, Rector of the University of Azuay, welcomed those present and extended a thank you to all the teachers and students who participated in the training.

“This course will undoubtedly benefit hundreds of young people thanks to the performance of our teachers who have been trained to bring students better opportunities. Above all, those who are in remote and most vulnerable sectors, ”said the Rector.

The training sessions were divided into two teaching courses and another one in mathematics improvement, taught by 18 teachers from the University of Azuay in the Faculty of Science and Technology.

All the mathematical concepts and exercises taught in the first, second and third years of high school, such as algebra, trigonometry, probability, statistics and calculus, were addressed.
