Interdisciplinary Contest in Modeling

The International Mathematical Contest in Modeling (ICM) is a multi-day mathematical modelling competition that has been held annually, during January or February since 1985.  It is administered  by COMAP and sponsored by AMS, MAA, SIAM and INFORMS. It is distinguished from other major mathematical competitions by its strong focus on modeling skills, mathematics, originality, teamwork, communication and justification of results. It runs concurrently with the Mathematical Contest in Modeling (MCM). ICM is one of the most prestigious mathematical competitions in the world. The financial support was initially provided by the U.S. Department of Education, with additional support from the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS).
