Rust College to Host Mathematics Camp Featuring International Partners

Four Rust College students receive scholarships during annual celebration in Holly Springs

Two-day camp will introduce students ages 12-17 to advanced mathematical concepts through games, puzzles, interactive problem-solving, and real-world applications.

The Rust College Division of Science and Mathematics will host the Rust College Mathematics Camp on Friday and Saturday, August 21-22, 2026.

Designed to serve approximately 80 students ages 12-17, the camp will provide an engaging introduction to advanced mathematical concepts through puzzles, games, hands-on activities, and practical applications. Sessions will be tailored primarily for middle and high school students from a variety of educational backgrounds.

Rust College’s German and Japanese partners will also participate, bringing an international perspective and additional educational enrichment to the two-day experience.

Camp sessions will generally last between 60 and 90 minutes and will extend beyond the traditional classroom model. Students will explore advanced and graduate-level mathematical concepts in creative and accessible ways while discovering connections between mathematics, their classroom studies, and real-world situations.

The Mathematics Camp represents another innovative initiative of the Division of Science and Mathematics under the leadership of Dr. Cadavious Jones, Dean. Age-appropriate programming for younger participants may also be offered if there is sufficient demand.

Registration is open and space is limited. To register or obtain additional information, contact (662) 252-8000, ext. 4077.
