International Linear Algebra Society

Home

Welcome to the Home page of ILAS Education.

The International Linear Algebra Society Education Committee (ILAS-ED) was established in the early 2000s to promote the learning, teaching, research, and support of linear algebra in higher education. ILAS-ED consists of a committee whose members are drawn from a range of institutions worldwide and appointed by ILAS.      

We invite the ILAS community to participate in the education committee’s endeavors and hope to engage and include everyone in our events and activities.
