Math contests at UIUC

In the Falls of 2024, we had two “local” math competitions at UIUC: Freshman and Mock Putnam (late October or early November). Undergraduate students could also participate in Putnam exam (Saturday, December 7).

In the Spring of 2025, one more math contest will take place – Undergraduate contest (late February or early March).

In the Fall of 2024, training sessions will be held in 158 Loomis Lab on Wednesdays 4-5:50 in 158 Loomis Lab, starting on Sep 11 and continuing, tentatively, until the Fall break. No such sessions are planned for the Spring Semester of 2025, but they shall restart in the Fall of 2025.

If you are interested in participating in these math competitions and/or training sessions, or in getting access to the training materials, please visit the Canvas page for math contests, and enroll (https://canvas.illinois.edu/enroll/AKX4BR). There, you can get placed on a mailing list for contests; sign-up sheets will also be available.
