The American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) is an organization dedicated to the improvement of education in the first two years of college mathematics in the United States and Canada. It runs an annual conference, summer institutes, workshops and mentoring for teachers in and outside math, and a biannual math competition. It publishes one refereed journal, "The AMATYC Review," and issues position statements on matters of mathematics education.

The math competition is held in spring and fall semester each year, and is limited to problems in precalculus. Only students enrolled in two-year colleges are eligible to participate.

AMATYC was founded in 1974. Its office is at Southwest Tennessee Community College in Memphis, Tennessee.
