The MTTS programme is one of the most popular and significant summer training programme in the country. We receive a large number of applications forms from all parts of the country and the selections is extremely difficult. Due to limitation of resources and seats, a large number of good students do not get a chance to participate in MTTS Programme. In order to provide opportunities to large number of students at regional levels, the Director, in a meeting held during International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) at Hyderabad in August 2010, made an appeal to mathematics community to organize such mini camps in the line of Level O of the MTTS Programme. Since then many people have taken initiatives to organize one week Initiation into Mathematics (previously called as mini MTTS) Progarmmes at regional level.
