The competition is intended for university students of countries from all over the world who are interested in mathematics.
We invite both University teams and individual participants. If your University would like to participate in team competition, please, send me the University team list. Each University can present one team including three students and any number of students for individual competition. Team members participate in individual competition too.
You can find the information about NCUMC and register (the deadline for registration is 20.04.2026) at the Olympiad site: https://im.itmo.ru/en/events/ncumc
Details
We invite organizers of the University teams to send us problems for the competition to the following address: popov1955@gmail.com. Please, do this before 20.04.2026.
If you have no possibility to visit St. Petersburg and to take part in our main competition, you can participate in the INTERNET VERSION of NCUMC. For this purpose you should organize a mirror of NCUMC 2026 at your University. To do this, please, send me the letter with the following information: your name and position, your University, list of students which plan to participate in the internet version of NCUMC. If your University would like to participate in team competition, send me the University team list. Each University can present one team including three students and any number of students for individual competition. Team members participate in individual competition too. On the day of NCUMC (Sunday, 26.04.2026 at 10-00 (Moscow time)), I will send the problem list to your e-mail address. Students have 4 hours for solving the problems. I will send you the marking scheme for evaluation of student’s works. You evaluate the works of your students and form the table of their results (presenting points for each problem). Then, you make scans of student’s works and send it me with the table of results. The deadline for sending is 27.04.2026, 23-59 (Moscow time). The ranking of internet participants is separate from the ranking of the main competition.
