Ams Donation 2019

Mathworks Received Grant from American Math Society

 

Mathworks received a grant of $13,000 from the American Math Society (AMS) Epsilon Fund to support the Mathworks Honors Summer Math Camp (HSMC). This donation will provide scholarships for students with financial need, helping to ensure that all students can attend the HSMC regardless of their financial background. The Epsilon Fund annually recognizes the top summer math programs in the country. This is the 18th time that the Epsilon Fund has awarded a grant to support the Mathworks Honors Summer Math Camp.

 

The HSMC is a 6-week mulit-year residential program for talented high school students. Advanced students work on research projects mentored by faculty.

"HSMC has taught me not only many new and interesting ways to solve a far greater variety of problems than I had ever seen before, but also to gain a new appreciation for mathematics." - Kevin, 9th grader

"HSMC has taught me to never give up.  Now I can sit for hours and think about different methods of solving the question." - Jessica, 9th grader
