The Art of Problem Solving (AoPS) is an education company founded by Richard Rusczyk in 2003.[1]
Its offices are in in San Diego, California [2][3] and Rusczyk is the current CEO.[4]
It has published several mathematics textbooks, and maintains a website with online math classes, forums[5], articles, a math competition problem database, and other resources for advanced math learners[1][6]. Recently, it created AoPS Academy, an in-person program[7] , and Beast Academy, a curriculum for elementary school mathematics[8]. It also has significant philanthropy efforts through the Art of Problem Solving Foundation (also called the Art of Problem Solving Initiative), including Bridge to Enter Advanced Mathematics (BEAM)[9] and the USA Mathematical Talent Search (USAMTS). [10] AoPS also nationally sponsors MATHCOUNTS. [11]
Its curriculum focuses on problem-solving rather than rote learning, and is designed for gifted math students.[12]
