February 6 - 10
Last year Bethel's 2002 COMAP teams received the two possible highest possible ratings of "outstanding" and "meritorious" in the national COMAP mathematical modeling competition against hundreds of colleges and universities around the world. This year Bethel will field two teams that will defend our title.

This Mathematical Contest in Modeling is organized by the Consortium for Mathematics and Its
Applications (COMAP) and sponsored by the National Security Agency (NSA), the
Institute for Operations Research and Management Sciences (INFORMS), the
Mathematical Association of America (MAA), and the Society for Industrial and
Applied Mathematics (SIAM). See http://www.comap.com/undergraduate/contests/mcm/
for further information.
These students will bring all the skills that they have learned in their mathematics
and computer science courses to analyze very challenging open-ended problems in
applied mathematics.
 | They have from Thursday the 6th at 7 p.m. until Monday the 10th at 7 p.m. |
| They will not know what the problem is until they begin on Thursday |
Make sure you cheer them on if you see
them hard at work!
