    • Maths Olympiad Syllabus

    The Mathematical Olympiad Programme (MOP) in India, which leads to the participation of Indian students in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), is organized by the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education (HBCSE) in collaboration with the National Board for Higher Mathematics (NBHM) of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Government of India. The first stage (IOQM) of the Olympiad examination is conducted by MTA (Mathematics Teachers’ Association) with assistance from IAPT, while the later stages are the responsibility of HBCSE. This programme is one of the major initiatives undertaken by the NBHM. 

    Aim of Mathematical Olympiads:

    • To stimulate love and enthusiasm for mathematics
    • To provide a healthy competitive activity that facilitates the learning of mathematical concepts, and the teaching of major strategies for problem-solving
    • To foster mathematical creativity and ingenuity, and the thrill of meeting challenges
    • To spot mathematical talent among pre-university students in the country

    The Five Stages of Mathematical Olympiad Programme

    In order to select the students for International Olympiads, the country has been divided into regions with a regional coordinator responsible for each region (details of which are available on the HBCSE website). The Mathematical Olympiad programme consists of the following five stages:

    Some Other Respectable Mathematical Olympiads

    • European Girls Mathematical Olympiad (EGMO): The EGMO, which started in 2012, is a platform that promotes a career in Mathematics amongst girl students by challenging the brightest four pre-university girl students from each participating country. The EGMO is a two-day event with two written tests held on two consecutive days. Each test consists of three problems and the contest lasts for four and half hours on each day. India has been participating in the EGMO since 2015 and the selection process for EGMO is conjoined with that for the IMO (The International Mathematical Olympiad).
    • Asia Pacific Mathematics Olympiad (APMO): The APMO, which started in 1989, is a contest specifically held for students in Asian countries and the countries on the rim of the Pacific Ocean. A student can participate in APMO in his/her own country. India has been participating in the APMO since 2015. The APMO is a one-day event consisting of 5 problems to be solved in four hours. The other rules and regulations for participating in APMO are much like the IMO.

    The Five Stages
