The preparation of this competition received strong support from the Department of Academic Affairs, Science and Technology Research Institute and other schools. After the preparation and training, eventually 14 teams were formed. Wang Mingli, Deputy Dean of the School of Science served as the leader of the competition. Zhang Yin served as the head coach. Most of the contest topics come from practical corporate issues. Experts from some prestigious companies such as Alibaba, The MathWorks, and Didi Chuxing are invited, which demonstrated the application of mathematics in practical problems. Students know more about mathematical modeling knowledge and disseminated the concept of mathematical modeling, which greatly promotes the cultivation and improvement of students' innovation.

The 8th Mathor Cup University Mathematical Modeling Competition is a disciplinary competition for students of higher education organized by the China Optimization Law, Coordinating Law, and Economic Mathematics Research Society. The Mathor Cup University Mathematical Modeling Competition was held on April 5 to 9, 2018. The contest was attended by 387 colleges and universities with a total of 3210 teams.
