丁香园AV

Each year, during late June or early July, we host a regional for grade 9 and 10 students (and some keen grade 8 students who are familiar with grade 9 math). These camps, which are organized annually at several universities across Canada, are designed to provide students who have demonstrated a talent for mathematics, with a variety of enrichment activities in a fun and rewarding environment. Our camp is sponsored by grants from the and from the .

Presentations offer insights into higher level mathematics while engaging the participants. Most of the presentations have a hands-on component to offer experiences with mathematics drawn from a variety of backgrounds. Students will have fun trying out their problem solving and critical thinking skills, gain a better understanding of mathematical structures, and be intrigued by the beauty that mathematics offers. Presenters and support staff are drawn from faculty, visiting faculty, postdoctoral students, graduate students and undergraduate students of the Department of Mathematics and affiliated organizations.

Note that both math camps are day camps. Students are responsible for their transportation to and from the camp each day.

Support from , the , and the enables us to cover the majority of the food, events, and other costs. However, there is a registration fee for both camps.  New registration fees will be posted in 2022.
