Geometry Laboratory
A team dedicated to teaching, a space dedicated to experimentation.
Experimenting with geometry is the central goal of the Geometry Laboratory, a space in the facilities of the Mathematics Department of the Faculty of Sciences equipped with computers and manipulable materials, available for sessions with the school public and for the training of teachers. Participants in the sessions are invited to solve geometric challenges, taking advantage of intuitive and interactive approaches.

Geometry and Algebra
Session dedicated to the exploration of the relations between geometry and algebra, analytical geometry and the calculation of areas and volumes of figures/solids defined by equations.
