Summer Camps for Students

Summer 2024 Programs

Each summer MathCEP runs a variety of summer programs, often in collaboration with other centers at the University.

Math Modeling Camp

June 23rd through 27th, 2025

How is math used to solve important problems facing our world today? Mathematical models help us to study the effects of traffic on a bridge, predict trends in population and disease, or estimate the climate’s impact on natural resources.  Collaborate with other students to create mathematical models in this high school camp.

Students should currently be enrolled in high school and have completed a year-long course in single variable calculus by the end of the 2023-2024 school year.  High school seniors who will have graduated by July are still eligible!

UMTYMP Summer Camp

July 8th through 11th, 2025

For UMTYMP students who have completed Algebra II or Precalculus in the spring 2024 semester.  Instead of acceleration, our summer camp for UMTYMP students focuses on enrichment, and gives our instructors a chance to share their favorite mathematics with UMTYMP students.

Girls Excel in Math and Adventures in Math

Our two public middle school programs: Girls Excel in Math and Adventures in Math are for students in 4th through 6th grade.  Students will participate in hands-on experiments and interactive activities led by instructors and university student mentors from the University of Minnesota.  We encourage students to explore mathematics from different perspectives with engaging activities.  We cover topics that fall outside the traditional school curriculum so students will learn new, real life applications of mathematics.  The curriculum for each course will be the same.
