This program is sponsored by NSA's Mathematics Education Partnership Program (MEPP).
The Math and Related Sciences (MARS) Camp is a two-week residential, summer enrichment program for high school and middle school students. MARS provides an array of courses aimed at engaging students in mathematical and scientific problem solving using various innovative techniques. Through participation in any one of the courses, you will better understand the role of mathematics and science in a society increasingly dependent on technology. Students will emerge from the Camp with increased confidence in themselves as problem solvers. Experimentation and in-depth exploration of mathematics and science are the hallmarks of the academic programs at MARS. A philosophy focused on cooperative learning, affective education, and intense personal involvement finds expression not only in the academic program, but also in a broad selection of recreational and informative evening activities.
The MARS CAMP will still be housed at UMES. Please click on http://www.umes.edu/MARS for additional information and the application for the MARS Camp.
