13th European Mathematical Cup announcement

There is about two months until the start of 13th edition of the European Mathematical Cup.

This year’s edition of the competition will take place from 14th to 22nd December. You can find confirmed local organizers for this year on the Local Organizers subpage. If you wish to become a local organizer, you can contact us by email.

The contest will again consist of proposed problems. The deadline for problem proposals is the 10th of November. If you have any interesting original problems you’d like to propose, please send us a .tex file done in the official template.

EMC rules changes

In light of the delays in releasing the results for EMC 2023, we have revised the rules to facilitate a smoother competition process and to expedite the availability of results. The primary changes involve the implementation of fully local grading and the enforcement of stricter deadlines. The updated rules that will hold for EMC 2024 and onwards are available on the rules subpage, and this document has been prepared to clarify the changes for those familiar with the previous rules.
