The High School Mathematical Contest in Modeling (HiMCM)®, an international contest for high school and middle school/level students, provides teams of students with the opportunity to work together to demonstrate and improve their analysis, problem solving, modeling, and writing skills. Teams of up to four students address one of two real-world application problem choices. The contest offers a challenge for student teams to solve a real-world math problem, develop interpersonal skills through teamwork, get recognition on an international stage, and obtain an impressive resume credential and an advantage when applying for future study and internships.

The High School Mathematical Contest in Modeling (HiMCM)®, an international contest for high school and middle school/level students, challenges teams of students to analyze, model, solve, and present solution reports to an open-ended application problem. Students form teams with up to four members to solve the contest problem. Each team may choose and submit an electronic solution to one of the two offered problems.

A distinguished group of international educators and professionals read and judge all submissions. Judging occurs in December and January with results posted by early February.
