About this Event

These workshops will be led by PCC faculty and student mentors dedicated to providing you with an enriching experience.

Join us to explore the exciting real-world applications of mathematics and coding across a variety of fields, including AI, data analysis, investment strategies, underwater robotics, and more. Engage in interactive games and hands-on activities designed to strengthen critical thinking, problem-solving, and mathematical reasoning. We will also explore a variety of career pathways where mathematics plays an important role.

Students are encouraged to bring their own laptops to fully participate in the hands-on activities and get the most out of the experience.
