Each year the Department of Applied Mathematics sponsors undergraduate teams in the international Mathematical Contest in Modeling. 聽The contest lasted 4 days from Feb 5-Feb 9, 2015. 聽聽During this time, each team of 3 students selected one of four problems, they did the research, constructed mathematical and then numerical models, and wrote a complete report. The modeling contest is essentially a mini-research project done in just 96 hours.This year, we had a record 7 teams (21 students) participate. 聽聽Anne Dougherty and Bengt Fornberg organize the teams and provide several training sessions. 聽The contest results were just posted and two of our teams were designated as Outstanding.聽麻豆免费版下载Boulder also had two Outstanding teams in 2012 and 2013. 聽And, even more remarkably, a total of 15 Outstanding designations since 2000. 聽This is a testament to our excellent students and exceptionally strong undergraduate programs!
