The ICMC (Imperial–Cambridge Mathematics Competition) aims to provide undergraduate and master’s students with an opportunity to enjoy non-bookwork, competitive mathematics. It is run by students and graduates of Imperial College London and the University of Cambridge, and is open to students studying in Europe. Since 2017, we have seen undergraduate students from across the UK and beyond take part in the events, which include a two-round Individual Competition and a Team Competition.
We welcome undergraduate and master’s students from all departments. Although the problems on our papers may require knowledge from the first year of an undergraduate degree in maths, our papers are designed to test the contestants’ abilities to solve problems creatively rather than their knowledge.
