The Math Department is sponsoring one or more teams to participate in the International Mathematical Contest in Modeling.
The International Mathematical Contest in Modeling (MCM) is a contest where teams of undergraduates use mathematics present their solutions to real world problems. The next MCM will take place February 13-17, 2020, and we are looking for students who wish to be part of UNL's team for this contest. Students don’t need to be a Math major to participate, so we are an extending an invitation to students in the Sciences and Engineering areas.
Last year, a team composed of three UNL undergraduates placed in the top 7% out of 14,108 participating teams from around the world.
Interested students should be encouraged to contact Prof. Alexandra Seceleanu (aseceleanu@unl.edu) to signal their interest in participating. Students can visit https://www.comap.com/undergraduate/contests/mcm/ for more information about the contest.
