The competition requires three students (undergraduates) as a group to complete all the work from modeling, solving, verifying and writing the paper within four days, which reflects the ability of the contestants to study problems and solutions and the spirit of teamwork. He is the originator of all kinds of mathematical modeling competitions today.

Some universities in western countries introduced mathematical modeling in 1960s and 1970s, and several universities in China also introduced mathematical modeling into their classrooms in the early 1980s. After more than 20 years' development, most undergraduate colleges and many junior colleges have offered various courses and lectures on mathematical modeling, which has opened up an effective way to cultivate students' ability to analyze and solve practical problems by using mathematical methods.
The mathematical modeling competition for college students first appeared in the United States in 1985. 1989, under the organization and promotion of several teachers engaged in mathematical modeling education, students from several domestic universities began to participate in American competitions, and their enthusiasm became higher and higher. In recent years, the number of participating schools and teams has accounted for a considerable proportion.
