Dr. Fevzullah Bilgin, the Managing Director of NTIC, described the competition as one of the largest and most prestigious mathematics competitions in the country.

The competition, which began in 2003, focuses on building students' capacity in the subject and nurturing mathematical talent nationwide. Outstanding students who qualify for the second round will receive full tuition scholarships to study at NTIC, while successful math teachers and schools will also receive rewards and educational materials.
