On December 17, the award ceremony of the 20th China Graduate Mathematical Contest in Modeling, sponsored by the Department of Degree Management and Graduate Education of the Ministry of Education and co-sponsored by the Chinese Society of Degree and Graduate Education and the Youth Science and Technology Center of the China Association for Science and Technology, was held in Southeast University。The "Jingong Mathematical Modeling" team, composed of three graduate students from Beijing Institute of Technology, Wu Zhiwei, Peng Haosong and Guo Ruiqi, stood out from nearly 20,000 teams and won the top prize in the competition - "Digital Model Star Champion".。

In this competition, three teams of our school won the national first prize (the ratio of winners is 1.01%), achieved the first prize "full award" for the first time, ranking first in the country;In addition, it has won 37 second prizes and 53 third prizes, ranking first in the number of comprehensive awards in Beijing universities。Our school won the excellent organization award for six consecutive years。

The competition attracted 65,133 graduate students from 524 graduate training institutions in the international and national provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities and special administrative regions，Among them, 276 people participated in the competition from 45 overseas graduate training institutions in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, the United States, Singapore, Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, Russia and Japan。In the end, 19,898 teams from 507 graduate training units and 59,694 graduate students submitted their papers to participate in the competition, the number of participating teams reached a record high。

Since the launch of the contest，The school set up a team of graduate mathematical modeling coaches，Led by the School of Graduate Studies and the School of Mathematics and Statistics，And multi-level linkage with professional colleges，Focus on organizing all engineering master and doctor and graduate students to participate in a mathematical contest in modeling，Promote training and consolidate mathematical foundation with competition，Enhance the ability of knowledge transfer;Establish communication platform，Encourage graduate students to form teams across schools and disciplines;Construction of mathematical modeling excellent course，Invite experts from inside and outside the school to carry out more than 20 special trainings such as competition lecture, competition problem analysis, paper writing, information retrieval, algorithm programming, speech expression, etc，Improve the comprehensive strength of postgraduate competition;Relying on top innovative talent training base，Provide excellent preparation environment for the graduate team。The participation scale of our graduate students has expanded year by year, with an average annual increase of more than 30%。

The school has always adhered to the fundamental task of cultivating virtues and cultivating people, made every effort to cultivate the growth soil of top-ranking innovative talents, guided students to constantly extract and solve scientific problems from major engineering and technical problems urgently needed by the country, and accelerated the training of leading talents in basic disciplines。Graduate students in the school for 2 years to co-first author or participate in the publication of the "Science" "Nature" the main issue of 7 papers, a total of 10 times for 4 years in a row to read the doctor was selected by Kerivean "global highly cited scientists", constantly help China's basic research and original innovation to make important progress。
