During all 25 weekly opening hours tutors can help with first-year and second-year queries.
To avail of drop-in, you do not need an appointment, just call in on your own or with others. We also support students to establish study groups, and provide guidance on the advantages and pitfalls of working with others.
Students who come to the MSC should bring all their relevant course material with them. We will try to assist with any queries, but we do not provide assignment solutions.
Students who are taking Pure Mathematics, Data Science or Statistics (except ST221 and ST122) should speak to their lecturers about supports.
Free drop-in services for secondary school students will reopen on 10th October 2022.
They run on Monday evenings during Maynooth University term time, from 6-8pm.
During semester 1, the drop-in is available on the following dates: October 10th, 17th and 24th, November 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th, December 5th and 12th.
They are available to any secondary school student, regardless of year or level. To avail of drop-in, you do not need an appointment, just call in on your own or with others. Students who come to the MSC should bring all relevant mathematical material with them. The tutors will assist with any queries that students may have, but will not provide homework solutions.
