A campus-wide contest for all undergraduate students at the University of Utah, the Calculus Challenge offers tough problems, the chance to show your stuff, and prizes up to $300. Necessary background is first year calculus up to roughly the middle of the second semester. Expect anything from intricate integrals and maddening min-max problems to way-out word problems.
Everyone participating in the Calculus Challenge is invited to stay for lunch and a discussion of the solutions. Both are free, and lunch begins at noon. Prizes will be awarded at the Department of Mathematics Awards Ceremony on Thursday, April 27 at 3:00 p.m. (JWB 335).
Interested students are invited to sign up in advance. You may send e-mail to Angie Gardiner (gardiner@math.utah.edu), or sign up in person at the Mathematics Department Office. You may also sign up just before the exam (please come ten minutes early).
First Prize: $300
Second Prize: $150
Third Prize: $100
The First Annual Calculus Challenge has been generously sponsored by College of Science Associate Dean George A. Williams.
