The center aims to assist students to develop the mathematical knowledge, skills and confidence that are needed for studying mathematics for various courses. The center shall be available to any student who is enrolled for any course at DIT University. The main beneficiaries would be students who do not have adequate mathematical background required for their studies. For example: students who have not studied mathematics concepts which is a prerequisite for other university course; mature age students who have not studied mathematics for several years; students from overseas or other states in the country who may find gaps in their knowledge, or who are not familiar with fundamental mathematical skills; students whose studies have been interrupted due to certain reasons.
The MLC drop-in centre is a relaxed place where you can come to talk with friendly tutors about learning and using mathematics for your coursework.
It is available for all students, regardless of the course you are studying. We exist for students studying courses that are part of a University of Adelaide degree/diploma program, especially if you are needing or using mathematics for the first time.
You don't need an appointment, just drop in! The best thing to do is just sit down somewhere and a staff member will come to you within half an hour. Students can write what course they are doing on blackboards on the tables, so it is a good idea to check the blackboards to see if other students are doing the same course as you before you sit down.
