Each of the prizes will be judged by a panel that will do its best to attend all relevant student presentations. We are asking students to self-identify themselves during the registration procedure as well as self-identify to the session chair prior to giving a presentation in a special session, minisymposium, or contributed session, in order to be considered for an award. Three separate competitions will be held for undergraduate and graduate students:

The Best AMMCS 2023 Student Poster.To be eligible, the student must be a co-author of the work presented, a designer of the poster, and a present of the poster during the scheduled poster session(s). This competition will include a short discussion related to the content of the poster with a judging panel. The scheduling for the poster presentations will appear in the final program.
  2. The Best AMMCS 2023 Student Paper in a Special Session (SS).To be eligible, the student must be a co-author of the work and present it during one of the “SS” Special Sessions or Minisymposia.
  3. The Best AMMCS 2023 Student Paper in a Contributed Session.To be eligible, the student must be a co-author of the work and present it during one of the Contributed Sessions.
