Math Camp Description:

Montana middle and high school students passionate about advanced math are invited to attend the Mathematics Circle Summer Camp hosted by the Science Math Resource Center at Montana State University. Participants will immerse themselves in exceptional math problem-solving activities, tour innovative university labs, and engage in fun STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) activities. 

These three-day camps are offered as day camps. Session 1 in June includes 6 weekly virtual workshops to maintain math proficiency through the summer and prepare students for the upcoming school year. Session 2 is offered in August.

Participants will receive information about enrollment and test readiness for the American Mathematics Competitions; the national math exams conducted by the Mathematical Association of America. Results from these exams are often requested from prestigious universities like MIT, Stanford, and Caltech. These online exams are hosted for Montana students by the MSU Science Math Resource Center.

Enrollment is capped at 25 participants.Enrollment is confirmed when payment is received.  Payment is due by Friday, June 9th for Session 1 and Tuesday, August 8th for Session 2.  Questions?  Contact Fenqjen Luo at (406) 994-5950 or [email protected].  Contact the Science Math Resource Center at (406) 994-7476 or [email protected].
