OVERVIEW
VOLUNTEER
WITH IMM
IMM’s international faculty consists of world-class researchers with extensive teaching experience and an international reputation. Thus, we welcome applications from world-class volunteers to join our IMM programmes who have a strong motivation to support students and who understand how our mission values are at the core of what we do.
Faculty are sensitive to cultural differences in teaching styles and understand that students may not have been routinely exposed to the teaching excellence we offer. However, we attract the highest-quality students who appreciate academic rigour and critical enquiry.

“The most motivated and curious students I have ever met.”
Fabrizio Ruggeri.
The environment, facilities and logistics at LUMS were excellent and helped to make my IMM classes in Algebra and Complex Analysis a great success. The enthusiasm and commitment of the IMM students was fantastic and created a wonderful environment to discuss the beauty of mathematics.” Frank Neumann (University of Pavia, Italy).
“It was a meaningful and enriching experience to teach to a small number of motivated students with very different backgrounds: to closely witness their aha moments, to see how they help each other and share their ideas in a safe environment.” Gabriele Benedetti (Vrije Universiteit, Netherlands).
Although we welcome interest from all quarters, unfortunately we can only accept applications from volunteer faculty who have an international research reputation and who have extensive teaching experience.
