The International Youth Math Challenge (IYMC) is a prestigious competition that provides students with the opportunity to test their knowledge of mathematics and become part of a global community of young mathematicians. The competition is coordinated by Edu.Harbour from Heidelberg, Germany and is held annually. Since its inception in 2018, IYMC has attracted more than 30,000 participants from around the world.

Alam Md Mustaqim Bin, master’s student Physics Department of NSU from Bangladesh, was among the top 8% of the best performers and won the silver award. A total of 5,280 students from all over the world competed for the victory this year. Alam Md Mustaqim Bin also won the national award of second degree.

The main objective of IYMC is to create an innovative platform for students to learn mathematics in depth and develop problem solving skills. The final round of the competition is highly competitive, with participants required to demonstrate their knowledge and skills in a timed online exam.

— I am interested in astrophysics and astronomy, I am interested in mathematics, so I participated in IYMC for the second time. I also wanted to test my skills. The competition was held online all over the world and consisted of three stages: selection, pre-final and final. All stages were monitored using proctoring (a special monitoring system for conducting an online exam or testing), — said Alam Md Mustaqim Bin.

The competition required solving various typical mathematical problems and analyzing scientific papers.

— In 2020, I represented Bangladesh and won a bronze award. This year, I won silver and the second national award (second result in the country). It is a great honor for me to represent NSU, and I am proud to be a student of this university, — the student shared his impressions.

Mathematics is not just numbers and formulas, it is a way of thinking. It helps to understand not only the laws of physics, but also many phenomena in life.

On behalf of the university, we congratulate the winner!
