MUMS Puzzle Hunt (MUMS) was an annual puzzle hunt run by the Melbourne University Mathematics Society. It was started in 2004 and ran every year until 2016, with another instance of the hunt later run in 2019 on a separate website. It forms one of the three Australian hunts that defined the online hunt tradition in the early 2010's.

The format in each MUMS Puzzle Hunt has remained fairly consistent - the hunt consists of five acts, which are released once per day, with each act containing three to five puzzles.
