A TRIG-STAR is a mathematics student who has demonstrated in competition that they are the most skilled among 300+ Michigan students in the practical application of trigonometry. The competition for the honor is a timed, 100-point exercise which is the solving of trigonometry problems, including a real-life problem mirroring typical situations that professional surveyors encounter every day. The contest helps to promote careers in surveying and mapping to students at the High Schools across the country.
The award is sponsored by the National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS) and the Michigan Society of Professional Surveyors (MSPS).
