TechCamp 2026: The Mathematics of GPS

TechCamp 2026: The Mathematics of GPS
The Politecnico di Milano TechCamp presents "The Mathematics of GPS," an intensive summer course for upper-secondary school students, taking place from June 22nd to 26th, 2026, at the Leonardo Campus in Milan.

During the week-long training program, held in English, participants will engage in laboratory activities that combine mathematical modeling and programming, starting with an educational game ("Find the Treasure") and exploring concepts such as parametric curves and ellipses, to understand how the mathematical models underlying GPS geolocation technologies are created.

The course is organized by the Department of Mathematics, with the scientific responsibility of the EffediEsse Laboratory.
