The Enigma Project is a presentation about the history and mathematics of codes and code breaking, from ancient Greece to the present, including a demonstration of a genuine WWII enigma machine.
Then later, in the workshops, it is the student's turn to be the codebreakers! Cryptography is one of the most interesting, inspiring and exotic applications of mathematics. The Enigma Project travels throughout the United Kingdom and abroad, visiting over 100 schools and organisations, and reaching over 12,000 people of all ages every year.
The Enigma Project is part of the Millennium Mathematics Project at the University of Cambridge, aimed at inspiring students in maths, science, and history through codes and code breaking. Millennium Mathematics Project. Thinkport. Free Downloads. Resources For The Classroom.
