Math Quest is a mathematics camp for high school girls interested in math and science who have a curiosity for exploring new ideas. With a focus on problem solving, our hands-on activities are led by female mathematicians, statisticians and physicists.
In 2023, Math Quest will run from Sunday, August 13th through Friday, August 18th. We will offer both an overnight, residential camp as well as a commuter, day-camp option. The residential camp includes all meals and 5 nights in residence (Sunday through Thursday night), with programming continuing into the evening. Day campers will join the activities during the day, from 9 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Thursday, and 9am - 1 pm on Friday, with lunch provided each day at one of the university dining halls. Snacks and other materials are also provided, including a Canadian Mathematical Society t-shirt and a Math Quest t-shirt. Campers must be entering grade 9 or returning to high school for September.
Registration for 2023 will open in late winter/early spring. There are bursaries available to assist campers in financial need. More information about bursaries is available through the registration portal.

Math Quest is sponsored by the Canadian Mathematical Society and the Queen's University Department of Mathematics and Statistics.
Math Quest is thrilled to be partnering with the Agnes Etherington Art Centre. We will be running camp programming from Agnes's bright and airy André Biéler Studio this summer.
