University and High School Students Advance to Integration Bee Finals

The University of Scranton’s Mathematics Department held its sixth annual Integration Bee recently on campus for high school and college students. The format of the competition is similar to that of a spelling bee, except contestants are given integrals to calculate. Five participants in both the high school and college categories moved on to the final round of the competition.
