| The Math and Related
Sciences (MARS) Camp is a two-week residential, summer enrichment program for high
school and middle school students. It is held under the
direction of the
University of Maryland Eastern Shore's (UMES)
Department of Education. The camp is located on the UMES
campus in Princess Anne, Maryland. (MARS
is the successor to the UMES SMART Camp offered in 2004.)
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. |
