Aitken and ANZIAM Poster Prizes

• The Aitken prize ($500) is awarded by the New Zealand Mathematical Society for the best contributed talk by a student at the Colloquium. Entrants must be enrolled (or have been enrolled) for a degree in mathematics at a university or other tertiary institution in New Zealand in 2012. The Aitken Prize honours the New Zealand-born mathematician A.C. Aitken.
  “How do I win the Aitken prize: what is looked for in student mathematics presentations?” appeared in the NZMS Newsletter 103 (August 2008), 27-28. There is also an article about posters in the August 2011 of the NZMS Newsletter.

• The ANZIAM poster prize ($200) is awarded to the best poster by an early career researcher (precisely: the first author of the paper must be either a student, or within 5 years of the completion of their highest degree).

If you wish to be considered for either prize, please indicate this on the registration form.
