From: Charles David Camp <camp@calpoly.edu>Sent: Monday, September 25, 2023 10:42 AMTo: mathminor@calpoly.edu <mathminor@calpoly.edu>Subject: Math Model Contest (MCM) & Math 371
 Hi everyone,
I'm the coach for the Cal Poly teams in an international competition in mathematical modeling -- the Mathematical Contest in Modeling (or MCM). I'm holding a pair of orientation meetings for the 2023 MCM. If you're interested, please attend one or email me if can't make either. Details about the contest and Math 371 are included below.
  • on-campus: Mon., Sep. 25, 6:10-7:00pm, 38-135
  • by zoom: Tue., Sep. 26, 6:10-7:00pm, zoom link
2023 MCM and Math 371 (WQ24)
The MCM is held every year over 4 days in January or February; this year, it will take place February 1-5, 2023.   It is open to any undergraduate student enrolled at Cal Poly (full or part time) and is appropriate for students at any level: first-year students to those about to graduate. It is open to any major as well -- it can be a competitive advantage in the MCM to have an interdisciplinary team. 
We offer a 2-unit support course, Math 371, to coach the teams competing in the MCM. This year, Math 371 will be offered in the Fall quarter (FQ23), MW 6-7pm, 38-135. You do not need to enroll in Math 371 to compete in the MCM, but it's strongly recommended that you do -- especially if you have not competed in the MCM before. 
If you are interested in the competition, please attend the first meeting for Math 371 which doubles as an orientation meeting for the contest. This meeting will be Mon., Sep. 25, 6:10-7:00pm in room 38-135. If you cannot attend this meeting, there will be another orientation meeting held online via Zoom, Tue., Sep. 26, 6:10-7:00pm, at this meeting ID (81217633497). (A complete zoom invitation is included below.) Please email me If you are interested in the contest or the course but cannot attend either orientation meeting.
