This intensive three-week program offers high school students a unique opportunity to delve into college-level mathematics, taught by NYU Courant faculty, within a collaborative and intellectually stimulating environment.
The NYU Summer Math Program for Young Scholars is an intensive three-week in-person program designed for mathematically talented high school students in grades 9-11. Participants engage in college-level mathematical concepts through a blend of lectures led by NYU Courant faculty and collaborative problem-solving sessions facilitated by graduate student teaching assistants. Students explore topics such as number theory, graph theory, topology, and computer science, building foundational skills in abstract reasoning and advanced problem-solving. Weekly sessions dedicated to mathematical games and puzzles further enhance critical thinking. Daily afternoon talks by faculty and guest speakers provide insights into the diverse applications of mathematics in scientific and professional fields, helping students explore potential academic and career paths in the mathematical sciences. The program culminates in a certificate of completion, preparing students for future collegiate studies in mathematics.
A typical day includes morning lectures by Courant faculty, followed by collaborative problem sessions led by graduate student teaching assistants, a provided lunch, and an afternoon talk by faculty or guest speakers on the applications of mathematics.
This program is ideal for high school students in grades 9-11 who have a demonstrated strong interest in mathematics, good academic standing (B- or higher in math), and are eager to explore undergraduate-level mathematical ideas and potential careers in the mathematical sciences.
