The 37th annual NorthWest Regional Mathcounts Competition was held at the STEM Complex (i.e. Discovery/Innovation Halls) at UVM on Saturday, February 8, 2020. About a dozen schools competed for both individual and team honors. The competition was organized by the College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences (CEMS) and the Vermont Society of Professional Engineers (VSPE).
According to the MathCounts website “The MATHCOUNTS Competition Series is the only competition program of its kind, with live, in-person events in all 50 states, as well as U.S. territories and schools worldwide through the U.S. Department of Defense and State Department.” “The Competition Series is ideal for students who have a talent and passion for math who need to be challenged. Students will engage in exciting, "bee-style" contests in which they will compete against and alongside other bright, motivated students. At the local, state and national level, students win hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarships and prizes every year.”
