Each year the NDSU Department of Mathematics sponsors a Mathematics
competition in honor of our colleague, K. N. Rao.
The competition is a contest of individual mathematical knowledge and
expertise as measured by performance on a series of
written problems. The expectation of preparation for this contest is
calculus and an introductory course in linear algebra.
There will be prizes for the top competitors. The top prize winner will
have their name engraved in the K. N. Rao trophy. The top five competitors
will be awarded gift certificates for the NDSU Varsity Mart.
There are also scholarships that can be utilized at NDSU.
The contest is open to undergraduates that are registered at any of the
Tri-College institutions (Concordia, MSUM, and NDSU).
This year's competition, the twenty-fifth annual K. N. Rao Mathematics Competition, will take
place on Saturday, October 10th, 9:30 - 12:30 in 334 Minard
Hall.
To register, email Rob Hladky at Robert.Hladky@ndsu.edu.
In your email registration, we ask that you include your name, your e-mail
address, your mailing address, and which Tri-College institution you
