CMS Regional Camp

 

Each summer, Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) Regional Math Camps provide junior high school students with an interest in mathematics with a unique and unforgettable enrichment experience. Students who attend the camps leave with new friends, new ideas, and a new outlook on mathematics. Advanced math concepts are presented in a manner that is challenging yet still accessible. CMS Regional Math Camps allow students to experience math as never before through games, projects, experiments, and other fun activities. The camps also highlight the role of mathematics in everyday life. CMS Regional Math Camps are hosted across Canada. In Alberta, a CMS Regional Math Camp is hosted in alternate years by the University of Alberta (even years) and the University of Calgary (odd years).


Faculty of Science Summer Camp

 

Math Juniors (Going into Grades 3-4)  - Do you like math games and puzzles? Develop your mathematical thinking and learn strategies playing and creating mathematical games. At the end of the week create an interactive math exhibit that you will present to your parents and fellow campers.

Math Explorers (Going into Grades 5-6) - Puzzles, problems, and a SNAP Math Fair. Develop your mathematical thinking by solving puzzles, tackling problems, and developing sophisticated strategies to win mathematical games. End the camp by creating math exhibits that you will present to your parents and fellow campers.

Alberta Mathematics Summer Institute



The Alberta Summer Mathematics Institute (ASMI) offers a fun, educational summer mathematics program. Its mission is to inspire exploration and research in mathematical studies. The ASMI is a day-style summer camp for high school students that runs over a four-week period, and takes place on the campus of the University of Alberta.

 

PIMS DREAMs Institute - Online Summer Enrichment Program

 

The Diversity in Research Experiences Across Mathematics (DREAMs) Institute is a two-week online summer enrichment program designed to provide high school students in their last year or two of studies an opportunity to explore the pursuit of mathematics at the University level. Participants will be introduced to four foundational areas of mathematics by guest lecturers during the first week and then work on inquiry based projects with the support of the lecturers and graduate teaching assistants.
