美國大學生數學建模競賽
美國數學及其應用聯合會主辦
美國大學生數學建模競賽(MCM/ICM)由美國數學及其應用聯合會主辦,是唯一的國際性數學建模競賽,也是世界範圍內最具影響力的數學建模競賽。賽題內容涉及經濟、管理、環境、資源、生態、醫學、安全、等眾多領域。競賽要求三人(本科生)為一組,在四天時間內,就指定的問題完成從建立模型、求解、驗證到論文撰寫的全部工作,體現了參賽選手研究問題、解決方案的能力及團隊合作精神。為現今各類數學建模競賽之鼻祖。
MCM/ICM 是 Mathematical Contest In Modeling 和 Interdisciplinary Contest In Modeling 的縮寫。MCM 始於 1985 年,ICM 始於 1999 年,由 COMAP(the Consortium for Mathematics and Its Application,美國數學及其應用聯合會)主辦,得到了 SIAM,NSA,INFORMS 等多個組織的贊助。MCM/ICM 著重強調研究和解決方案的原創性、團隊合作、交流及結果的合理性。
2019年,共有來自美國、中國、加拿大、英國、澳大利亞等17個國家和地區共25370支隊伍參加,包括來自哈佛大學、普林斯頓大學、麻省理工學院、清華大學、北京大學、上海交通大學等國際知名高校學生參與此項賽事角逐。
2020年,來自美國、澳大利亞、加拿大、英國、印度等多個國家與地區包括劍橋大學等眾多高校在內的20948支隊伍(MCM 13749支、ICM 7199支)參加,共評出Outstanding Winners獎37項(獲獎率約0.18%),冠名獎16項(獲獎率約0.07%)。
,科基資助,創辦“建模競賽”( 改 ,簡稱)競賽,宗旨鼓勵範圍固各際題予闡、析提,構鼓勵積極參強調完整模型構造程。徹底競賽,若干限制領域際題,組隊形式參賽,選題,完該際題數學建模的全過程,並就問題的重述、簡化和假設及其合理性的論述、數學模型的建立和求解(及軟體)、檢驗和改進、模型的優缺點及其可能的應用範圍的自我評述等內容寫出論文。由專家組成的評閱組進行評閱,評出優秀論文,並給予某種獎勵,它只有唯一的禁律,就是在競賽期間不得與隊外任何人(包括指導教師)討論賽題,但可以利用任何圖書資料、網際網路上的資料、任何類型的計算機和軟體等,為充分發揮參賽學生的創造性提供了廣闊的空間。第一屆MCM時,就有美國70所大學90個隊參加,到1992年已經有美國及其它一些國家的189所大學292個隊參加。據主辦方公布,2014年美國大學生數學建模競賽吸引了包括美國、中國在內的來自全球19個國家和地區的7783支隊伍參賽,競賽已經成為一種國際性競賽,影響極其廣泛。

美國大學生數學建模競賽每年的比賽時間一般定在二月初,需要通過官方網站報名,而且需要有固定的指導教師。一般各大高校均會組織感興趣的同學進行賽前培訓以及報名、交費等事宜。
具體的比賽時間:
北京時間:2014年: 2月 7日 ——2月11日
北京時間:2015年:2月6日——2月10日
北京時間:2016年:1月29日——2月2日
北京時間:2017年:1月20日——1月24日
北京時間:2018年:2月9日——2月14日
北京時間:2019年:1月25日——1月29日
(比賽以美國東部時間為準,其比北京時間晚了大約13個小時,也就是北京時間2月6日早上九時,美國東部時間是2月5日晚八時)
其實每一年的時間應該是固定的,但是由於該大賽有來自世界各個國家的大學生參賽,故偶爾會因為某些事而更改時間。像2013年美國大學生數學建模競賽比賽時間起初安排在中國農曆年的大年初一至大年初五四天三夜。后經中國方面協商更改與中國農曆年小年左右。
