Each year the UPEI Mathematics and Statistics Department assists with an annual Mathematics Competition, which is open to all students enrolled full-time in any high school in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, or Prince Edward Island. The competition is designed to foster interest in Mathematics, increase public awareness of Mathematics, and encourage students to develop mathematical and problem-solving skills.

This competition involves six challenging (and fun!) mathematical problems requiring written solutions. No knowledge of mathematics beyond high school curriculum is required. No calculators are allowed. There are cash prizes awarded to the top finishers in each province and the region.

Organizers from the UPEI Mathematics and Statistics Department include Nasser Saad and Lowell Sweet.
