All Primary Concentrators are required to submit a five page expository paper in mathematics. The
paper should be an original, coherent and correct exposition of a topic in pure or applied mathematics.
The paper should be written during the sophomore or junior year under the supervision of a professor or
tutor in a tutorial (Math 99r) or Math 91r reading course or a 100 or 200 level course that the student is
contemporaneously enrolled in. Both the professor or tutor and the Director of Undergraduate Studies
must accept the paper. Ordinarily students enrolled in a tutorial (Math 99r) automatically satisfy the
expository paper requirement as part of the structure of the tutorial.
