The Jane Street Academy of Math and Programming (AMP) is a highly selective, free five-week summer residential program designed for recent high school graduates with a strong interest in mathematics and computer science. The program offers a rigorous and interactive STEM curriculum, focusing on advanced topics such as number theory, combinatorics, computer programming, data analysis, and game theory. Students engage in daily classes, problem-solving sessions, and hands-on coding workshops, receiving mentorship from professional quants and attentive support from instructors and teaching assistants with a student-to-teacher ratio of less than 4:1.
Participants gain valuable skills in algorithmic problem-solving, analytical thinking, and collaborative work through interactive lectures, coding exercises, and group projects. The program aims to provide access to excellent educational opportunities for students who have experienced barriers to advanced STEM education. Beyond academics, AMP includes a variety of social activities, guest speakers, and games, fostering a supportive community and offering a taste of college independence.
A typical day at AMP includes breakfast, morning classes focused on subjects like number theory or combinatorics, lunch with other students, afternoon sessions on efficient algorithms and coding puzzles, and a study hour for collaborative problem-solving. Evenings may feature guest speakers, games like Figgie, or organized social activities and excursions around NYC.
This program is best for recent high school graduates who are interested in math and computer science, have experienced barriers to accessing advanced STEM educational opportunities, and possess a love for problem-solving and a deep desire to learn.
