The 37th<\/sup> Joseph W. Andrushkiw Mathematics Competition was held on Saturday, November 23rd<\/sup>, 2024. The event, hosted by the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, welcomed nearly 150 students (along with their teachers and\/or parents) from thirteen New Jersey high schools.\u00a0 This was a 66 percent increase in contestants over last year.\u00a0 Our organizational team was very happy to see this continued post-Covid growth in Competition attendance.<\/p>\n

The students took a 90-minute test covering a wide range of topics, including probability, combinatorics, logic, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. While the students took the test, Dr. Bert Wachsmuth of the Department of Math and CS offered a workshop for interested teachers and parents. The interactive workshop explored free software Dr. Wachsmuth created to visualize complex numbers and functions and to explore complex dynamic systems and fractals.\u00a0 <\/em>After the test, the students were treated to lunch in the Seton Hall cafeteria.\u00a0 The event concluded with an awards ceremony in Jubilee Hall, where the top teams and the top student scorers were recognized.\u00a0 The team from Bergen County Academies finished in first place.\u00a0 We had some rather unusual individual results this year, as 6 students (all from Bergen County Academies) had perfect scores!<\/p>\n
