About this event
Baylor TIP Camp is primarily residential, but families may select a day camp option. Students will stay in the dorms with Resident Assistants Sunday night through Friday nights, going home Saturday morning. Course offerings will run from 9am to 4pm, and social events and activities will be held every evening. Meals are included with registration. Students who elect to commute to camp will have the option of participating in the breakfast and staying for evening activities if they choose. Students must have been admitted to Baylor TIP to enroll. Outthinking the Competition: Game Theory in Action What’s the best way to negotiate, compete, or cooperate when other people’s choices affect your own? In this course, you will explore game theory—the mathematics of strategic decision-making—through real-world scenarios, puzzles, and interactive simulations. You will analyze classic problems like the Prisoner’s Dilemma, auctions, and voting systems, then apply those ideas to economics, politics, business, biology, and everyday life. Along the way, you will build logical reasoning skills, learn to think several moves ahead, and discover how incentives shape human behavior. Whether you are interested in STEM, law, economics, or social science, this class will challenge you to think strategically in a world full of competing interests. Level: TIP Academy
