Professor Geoff Prince

AMSI is the collaborative enterprise of Australia’s mathematical sciences. It exists to give independence to our disciplines and provide infrastructure so that we can take initiatives on the national and international stage. These measures fall largely into three classes – research and higher education, school education and engagement with the industrial and commercial world.

AMSI has built a record of achievement in these areas and is recognised by government and industry as a leading provider of services, activities and strategic initiatives.

The common aim we share with our partners is the radical improvement of levels of mathematical capacity and facility in the Australian community. It is AMSI’s ability to pull together skills and experience at the highest levels across the spectrum of the mathematical sciences that underlies our impact.

We acknowledge the considerable support of both the Victorian and Commonwealth governments in the establishment of AMSI and some of its programs and we invite potential partners to join us in invigorating Australia’s mathematical sciences in the 21st century.
