2022 will be Catholic University's third summer math program for high school students who are interested in a fun look at how mathematics is applied in various ways. Our goal is to inspire students to study math as a preparation for STEM fields by not only learning applied math, but also by visiting places where math is used and interacting with high school peers and undergraduate students with similar interests.
Cryptology - From ancient methods to modern cryptography, which is important in the hot fields of cyber-security and hacking.
Game Theory - Surprisingly applicable to daily life, this is a look at decision-making
Data Science and Statistics - Describing the world through data
Number Theory - Essential to modern computer security
Graph Theory - Securing a building, creating a social network, graph theory is a modern applied math field
