Visit program website

Explore mathematics beyond the scope of what is typically taught in the classroom. SUMaC is for students who have an exceptional interest in mathematics, and who are prepared for study of abstract algebra and number theory, or algebraic topology.

SUMaC focuses on mathematics that is motivated independently of ties to other sciences; nonetheless, important applications are introduced and pursued along the way.The SUMaC courses are not for credit or grade—they are designed for pure mathematical enrichment.

Similar to what they would experience in a college course, students can expect a heavy and engaging workload of assignments to work on outside of the live class meeting times.
