Concordia College Math Team Outperforms Berkeley
By North Callahan, Senior Director of Marketing, Concordia College
Apr. 27, 2016: The nine-student Concordia College Math Team competed recently in the 2016 International Contest in Mathematical Modeling and placed ahead of the University of California at Berkeley with two of the three-person Concordia College teams outperforming their Berkeley rival in the event. Berkeley is, arguably, the world leader in modeling and mathematical statistics.
One Concordia team consisting of Captain Yameng Wang, Ruiheng Xiang, and Zhen Yang earned "successful participant" status in the competition. This was the same performance level earned by Berkeley, West Point, Emory, Cal Poly, Virginia Tech, University of Washington, and other international colleges and universities.
But the two other Concordia teams of Captain Yuling Zhang, Jeongmin Lee, and Illeyana Graham, and Captain Elijah McGruder, SojeongLee, and Ho Jun Kim scored at the honorable mention level, which moved them ahead of Berkeley and other colleges and universities that earned successful participant status.
These two Concordia College teams earned the same level of performance as Brown, Peking University, Duke, Virginia Tech, U of Adelaide-Australia, and University of Colorado (a frequent winner of the event), along with other international colleges and universities.
