SUMMARY:21st CMS-UPEI-AARMS Regional Math Camp
DESCRIPTION:For more than 20 years\, the School of Mathematical and Computational Sciences (SMCS)\, UPEI has hosted a Math Camp for students in grades 10 and 11 from PEI high schools. The Math Camp is the SMCS’s primary outreach effort. Its goals are to give some of PEI’s best students an opportunity to broaden their mathematical horizons beyond what they see in their course work\, and to encourage them to continue their math studies at university. It is held for a weekend in May (where the Friday is a PD day for high school students) and sees a group of approximately 20-25 students attend campus. They participate in many math-related activities\, including group problem solving\, math relays\, math trivia and faculty sessions on various mathematical topics. The students’ feedback to the camp has always been very positive\, with most of the students planning to major in math/science at the post-secondary level.

SUMMARY:Blundon Seminar math camp
DESCRIPTION:The Blundon Seminar is an annual math camp for senior high school students from Newfoundland who are interested in mathematics and demonstrate consistently good performance in mathematics competitions. Participation in the math camp is by invitation only based on the results of preceding Blundon\, COMC\, Euclid\, Fermat\, and Cayley contests. Usually we invite 35 – 50 students. During the seminar the students attend talks given by mathematics professors on various mathematical topics and applications in science and engineering. There are problem solving sessions and other activities such Mathletics or Papers Chase. The winner of the Blundon Contest is presented with the Blundon Shield\, and the winners of other contests are also presented with money and book prizes. For more details visit https://www.mun.ca/math/community/annual-blundon-seminar-camp/ \nThis year the camp is planned as a one full day event.

SUMMARY:IDMS Summer School 2026
DESCRIPTION:Increasing Diversity in Mathematical & Related Sciences 2026\n\nMay 17 – 22\, 2026\, UBC Okanagan \n  \n\nThis is a 5-day Summer School that will bring together a diverse group of undergraduate students who identify as women or other underrepresented gender identities studying math at a Canadian university.\n\nOverview:\n\nThis will be an inspiring week of learning new math from influential women and gender-diverse mathematicians\, and collaborating with peers from across the country!  You will connect professionally and socially\, build networks among your academic peers and with the instructors. We will offer a challenging academic program\, as well as professional development sessions and panel discussions with a focus on how to meet challenges faced by women and other underrepresented gender identities in the mathematical sciences. \nDetails: \n\nLocation: University of British Columbia—Okanagan\, Kelowna\, BC\nDates: May 17 – 22\, 2026\nTopics: Combinatorics and Graph Theory\, highlighting algebraic methods\nEligibility:\nThis workshop is open to undergraduates in a math or related science program at a Canadian university who have completed at least two years of university-level math education at the time of application and identify as a woman or as another underrepresented gender identity.\n\nStudents must apply to participate in this workshop; we have space for approximately 35 students. Consideration will be given to students from multiple equity-seeking groups or with limited access to such programs. A reference letter from a professor or instructor is required.\n\nApplication:\nStudents are asked to complete this application form and have one letter of reference from a professor or instructor submitted to this reference form. We also ask that you submit transcripts (these are only used to understand the academic background of participants).\n\nThe deadline to apply is Dec. 15.\n\nFunding:\nAccommodations and food will be provided to all workshop participants. We have some travel support available for participants\, but we are asking participants to try to find matching funding. You can ask the head of your department or the undergraduate co-ordinator at your university if there is funding available for undergraduate students to attend conferences. You can also ask a professor (perhaps a professor that told you about this workshop) or a summer research supervisor\, or your math club or student’s union if there is funding available.

SUMMARY:Atlantic Topological Quantum Field Theory Spring School
DESCRIPTION:Topological quantum field theory (TQFT) is a powerful organizing framework for many areas of mathematics and physics. Born from 1980s algebraic topology—through discoveries such as Donaldson invariants and the Jones polynomial—and with quantum physics interpretations initially provided by Atiyah\, Witten\, and others\, TQFTs are today a vital tool for studying quantum matter. TQFTs describe the effective theories of topological insulators\, give frameworks for theories of quantum computing\, and provide an ideal language for understanding symmetries of quantum systems\, including recent developments like higher form and quantum symmetries. TQFTs are thus a valuable and widely applicable tool. This Spring School introduces key aspects of TQFT to early‑ and mid‑career graduate students\, with priority for Atlantic Canadian and traditionally underrepresented groups.

SUMMARY:Calculus Instruction in Atlantic Canada Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this workshop is to bring together high school and university educators from across the Atlantic region to discuss evidence-based pedagogy and innovative instructional methodologies used in introductory math courses. From these discussions\, we aim to better understand the needs of our students and develop courses and resources which address these needs. This year’s topic is “Assessing student learning in the age of AI”. We will discuss how AI has affected the teaching of mathematics at the high school and university level. We hope to develop ideas regarding how to use AI to support student learning\, as well as reflect on ways to further strengthen numeracy in our students without the use of AI. We hope to address how to create authentic\, compassionate\, reasonable assessments while accounting for student use of generative AI. This event consists of an invited speaker\, a panel discussion\, and small group discussions.

SUMMARY:Structural and Algorithmic Graph Theory Session at the Canadian Mathematical Society Summer Meeting
DESCRIPTION:We are organizing a scientific session on Structural and Algorithmic Graph Theory at the upcoming Canadian Mathematical Society Summer Meeting in Saint John\, NB (June 5-8). \nIt is generally believed that for most fundamental problems on graphs and networks\, efficient algorithms that apply to all possible inputs cannot exist. One approach to finding efficient algorithms is to study the structure of graphs which are restricted in various ways. This session will focus on graph structure and its application to designing efficient algorithms for important problems including graph colouring\, homomorphisms\, combinatorial reconfiguration\, flows\, packings and coverings\, and finding Hamiltonian cycles. \nOur goal is to bring together a diverse group of speakers from all career stages and from different research groups in order to exchange ideas on an expanding field of mathematics and to strengthen research networks within Atlantic Canada.
