The Canadian Mathematical Society is committed to mathematics education in Canada.
The CMS Education Committee is involved in a wide range of activities, from supporting mathematical education in secondary schools, universities, colleges and cegeps, to encouraging the public and young people to appreciate and engage with mathematics. It wishes to highlight quality Mathematics Education resources available on the web with a particular interest in Canadian sites.
Math Camps
Each summer, CMS math camps provide students with an interest in mathematics with a unique and unforgettable experience. The camps take place in universities and CEGEPs across Canada and range from day camps to week long events. Students who attend the camps leave with new friends, new ideas, and a new outlook on mathematics.
Competitions
Competitions are an important part of learning mathematics and a fun activity for students of all ages. The CMS supports math competitions in many ways, from running our own competitions, such as the Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge (COMC), to funding regional competitions to supporting Canadian involvement in international competitions.
Grants
The CMS has two grant programs: the Math Competitions Grants to support Canadian mathematics competitions in elementary and secondary schools throughout Canada and the CMS Endowment Grants to fund projects and activities that support the CMS’ mission and is available to CMS members.
