The Fields Trip Program invites classrooms across Canada to the Fields Institute to participate in a hands-on math workshop. This program is offered both in-person and online, and the workshops give students a chance to explore math concepts not typically covered in the standard curriculum. Students see how these concepts connect to the real world and to the research conducted in the Mathematics Department by some of the world’s top math researchers. Students also experience a class at Canada’s largest university.
This is a free Field trip program for Canadian students in grades 3-12, and can accommodate groups of up to 40 students during the school year (October to June). There is a variety of enriching and engaging topics for classroom teachers to choose from that not covered in the Ontario curriculum.
