About Us

In partnership with the University at Buffalo and funded by the UB Gender Institute, the UB Summer Math Program is a free math camp open to girls in and around the Buffalo area who are entering grades 5 to 8.

Through project-based learning (PBL), our program provides opportunities for students to explore and question mathematics, and to develop problem-solving skills and conceptual understandings — all while having fun.

We look forward to working with your child!
