The American Mathematical Society (AMS) Graduate Student Chapter will host its fourth annual Integration Bee 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 14 in Pearce Hall room 138.  

The Integration Bee has two categories: undergraduate and graduate. Each category requires students to solve various mathematical problems. Competitors have the chance to win prizes and receive the title of the “Grand Integrator”.   

Those in attendance will be provided with refreshments, and audience members are encouraged to participate if they think they can solve any of the problems.  

“It’s a great way to get both graduate (students) and the other students involved in math outside of their classes,” AMS faculty adviser Meera Mainkar said. Mainkar encourages students with majors or minors unrelated to math to come.  

Anyone interested in competing is encouraged to sign up in advance by emailing the AMS Graduate Student Chapter at amsgradcmich@gmail.com.

Last-minute registration will be allowed at the door at 6 p.m. Wednesday.
