Watch this presentation by the St. John's School Team (#17524) from Houston, Texas, who secured Third Place in the 2025 MathWorks Math Modeling Challenge. In this 23-minute video, the team demonstrates how they used mathematical modeling to predict temperature changes during heatwaves and developed resource allocation plans to minimize the effects of heat waves and power grid failures. The presentation showcases the work that earned them recognition among 794 competing teams with over 3,600 student participants. The MathWorks Math Modeling Challenge is a prestigious Internet-based competition organized by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) and sponsored by MathWorks, offering over $100,000 in scholarships to top teams in the U.S. and £75,000+ to teams in the U.K. Learn about the rigorous 14-hour challenge process and how these high school juniors and seniors tackled complex real-world problems using mathematical approaches.
