2011MCM/ICMCall for Entries 2011年MCM/ICM参赛通知
MCM Dear Colleagues: The Mathematical Contest in Modeling (MCM), a uniqueinternational contest for high school students and college undergraduates, willhold its
27th annualcompetition in February 2011. Last
year,2254 teams from 802 institutions in fourteen
countries participated in the contest. The MCM is
designed to stimulate and improveproblem-
solving and writingskills in mathematics. Students participate as team members rather than as individuals,creating an environment for sharing
knowledgeand skills.
亲爱的参赛选手: 第27届国际数学建模竞赛(MCM)将于2011年2月举行,该赛事是面向大学生和高中生的国际性赛事!去年,来自14个国家的802个院校共2254个团队参加了竞赛。MCM旨在激励与提高学生应用数学解决实际问题的能力和写作能力。学生需组队参与,以便形成一个共同分享知识与能力的团队环境。
Your institution may take part in the MCM effort
by encouraging a member of yourdepartment to serve as a faculty advisor and by promoting theparticipation of faculty and students from associated departments. Advisors help organize the
teams, distribute contest materials,and return solution **s to COMAP.
