At SigmaCamp, students spend one week (August 2-9, 2025) with other talented campers exploring advanced math and science through our academic program and creating lasting memories with the other students through various non-academic activities. They are guided by graduate students and are taught by leading professors and scientists from top institutions such as MIT, Yale, Stony Brook University, Princeton, Stanford, and many other universities.
Academic program
SigmaCamp is a multidisciplinary program that covers topics in advanced Math, Computer Science, theoretical and experimental Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Engineering, and robotics. Starting with the first Semilab and a Lecture in the morning, followed by the second Semilab in the afternoon, and a variety of Workshops in the evening, a camper’s day is filled with a lot of new knowledge and discoveries.
Non-Academic Activities
What summer camp would be complete without some outdoor fun? We have a variety of sports campers can enjoy like soccer, basketball, ping-pong, and chess. Other options include yoga classes and swimming in the lake. You can experience the art of tree climbing at the multiple High Ropes courses, and if you don’t like sports, you can paint, play music, or practice your acting skills. In the evenings, you have a choice of several evening clubs.
