On May 12 and 13, the top four students from each state across
the United States will gather in Washington, D.C., to compete in
the highest level of math competition. Mathletes compete as state
teams of four and as individuals to be named National Champions.
The event combines friendly competition and fun.
"We have strived to encourage innovation and education in youth
since our humble beginnings 60 years ago," said Kevin Hess, Mouser
Senior Vice President of Marketing. "By sponsoring STEM programs
like MATHCOUNTS, we hope to instill a passion for science,
technology, engineering or math in our future mathematicians,
engineers and problem solvers."
MATHCOUNTS begins in the Fall, where students across the country
compete. The middle schoolers (grades 6–8) receive rigorous math
problems to help expand their academic and career opportunities in
the future — inspiring students to believe in their own abilities
while building self-confidence.
Mouser's commitment to education runs deep. For many years, the
global authorized distributor has been a major sponsor of FIRST®
Robotics at the local, state and international levels by supporting
the robot-building competitions and local teams. Mouser is also a
proud sponsor of the Shine Runners Racing Company from the Ben
Barber Innovation Academy, a student group that builds and races
solar-powered cars in Mouser's hometown of Mansfield, Texas.
Additionally, Mouser supports local teachers and students with
technology grants to enhance STEM education. For more information
