  • Scholarship Description
  • MathWorks Math Modeling (M3 Challenge) is a contest for teams of high school juniors and seniors in the U.S. and sixth form students in England and Wales. Through participation in this competition, students experience what it's like to work as a team to tackle a real-world problem under time and resource constraints, akin to those faced by professional mathematicians working in the industry. Teams of 11th and 12th graders from anywhere in the United States, including territories and DoDEA schools, and sixth form students (age 16-19) in England and Wales may participate. The competition is fully virtual, and participants will not be charged a registration or participation fee.

    Teams must be comprised of three to five students and one teacher-coach and a maximum of two teams per school may register. Students from dual/joint enrollment programs, magnet programs, and other academic or training programs that draw students from more than one high school for a subset of classes or academic enrichment may be eligible if all of the criteria are met, and at the discretion of SIAM. Homeschool and cyber school students may either form their own team(s) or request to participate on a team at the school in the district or community in which they reside if it meets the SIAM guidelines.

I would love to get this scholarship because I want to my family proud and I want to become a Math Teacher for 11th graders for my career. I was inspired by an old teacher of mine and that's been my goal ever since to become a Math teacher. I know if I put all my work and effort I can definitely become the teacher I want to be.

I need this scholarship for college and I hope to be studying engineer in the fall of this year.

This scholarship appeals to me because it will provide financial aid to help me attend college. I work hard, but the extra income would allow me to pursue my dream of attending college.

I applied for this scholarship last year, and it's incredibly fun, even if I didn't get it, or even past the first round. It requires more than math you learn in the classroom, and it's basically learning how to apply your knowledge to real-world problems. Programming, statistical modelling, essay-writing, and probably some foundational knowledge of certain real-world situations are all skills you need for this competition. I recommend anyone to try it out, because it was a great way to start thinking about real world problems!

Ashley H  on 5/17/2019 10:39:51 PM

For me, math has become a strong passion. I enjoy math because it's a unique way of learning. I remember earning a huge trophy in the 3rd grade because I was the fastest one to solve problems in less than a few minutes. Math also helps reduce my stress. Solving problems correctly, creates satisfaction.

When I have trouble sleeping whether during the school year or summer vacation, I tend to google Math problems and tackle them on to help me sleep. Math is my cup of tea !

Alex O  on 2/15/2019 9:31:23 AM

I am entering this contest because math is my favorite subject. Math comes so easy to me when I was taking my math tests in school I would only put my answers down and not the work. My teachers would deduct points from my tests because I didn't do the work, but I knew the answers I learned over the years to always do the work to proof you know the subject. I would like a scholarship so I can further my skills in math.

Colston E  on 1/20/2019 1:14:40 PM

I have a passion for Math and I have always excelled in Math. My teachers would want me to show my work on tests, but I would do most of the problem solving in my head. Math is the foundation of our society because everything we use was created with math. This scholarship would enable me to further my progress and love for math.
