Second Edition! Integration Bee 2020
It’s back! The second annual Integration Bee at the University of Illinois will be held on Friday, April 3rd, 4-6 pm in Altgeld Hall, room 314! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to solve 15 integrals in 45 minutes.
If you participated last year and decided that this simply is not for you, fear not! The format has been tweaked and the problems are indeed doable and not impossible as they were the previous time (the problem writer apologises for this). Questions still go beyond ordinary Stewart’s problems and test your logic, critical thinking, mathematical intuition, and knowledge, but this time it’ll be even better!
Should you make it through Friday and become a finalist, you will attend the second portion of the competition on Saturday, April 5th, 2-4 pm in Altgeld Hall, room 314! Here, you will have three minutes to solve a given problem while facing off against someone else. Do the problem correctly – and fast enough – and you continue to the next round.
