MATHCOMP / MATHFUN
MathComp/MathFun is the flag-ship event of CIE/USA-DFW’s youth program since 1990. The mission of this event is to stimulate young students’ interest in STEM fields. This program features a math competition (MathComp), interactive STEM exhibitions and games (MathFun), and a parenting seminar. Each year, the event attracts about 1,000 participants, including students, parents, educators, and volunteers. We are proud to serve the DFW community over these past 30 years and more.
STUDENT ENGINEERING AND CREATIVITY CONVENTION
The CIE/USA-DFW Student Engineering and Creativity Convention (SECC) program is designed for all students in grades 1 through 12 to acquire interest in STEM through creative hands-on projects, real world challenges, and interaction with industry professionals. This STEM event supports the National Discover-E Engineers Week. The SECC consists of a series of programs: two free hands-on workshops and a competition. For the past four years, SECC has attracted huge interests from DFW 1st to 12th grade students. We are excited to announce the new theme and updated technologies this year. Hundreds of students have improved their coding and presentation skills from this event, and you can too!
YOUTH ENGLISH SPEECH CONTEST
The goal of the contest is to stimulate young students’ interests and boost their confidence and competence in public speaking by providing an opportunity for them to enhance their speech skills. This event has served the DFW community for over 10 years, and each year it attracts over 100 students from 1st to 12th grades for the contest and hundreds of participants including parents, educators, and volunteers involving this event.
