==Judging==

Ph.D.-level applied mathematicians judge the contest in three phases. In triage, each paper is read through at least two times, and as many as five times, before being eliminated or passed on to the second round. The triage round of judging eliminates two-thirds or more of the submitted papers. In the second round of judging, papers are read up to an additional twelve times each, and the top papers emerge. The top six papers overall become Finalists and go on to the final event and presentation round of judging. In 2018 theThe M3 Challenge Technical Computing Scholarship Award, wasbegun institutedin and2018, honors teams for an outstanding use of computer programming (other than spreadsheets); these awardees also are invited to and present at the final event. Judging is blind, with teams known only by a unique team ID number, until the validation and presentation round during the final event. Finalist and Technical Computing Awardee teams present their papers live to a panel of judges during the final event. Following the presentations, judges rank the teams and a formal award ceremony takes place.
