Association of Statistics Lecturers in Universities (ASLU) Project Prize
ASLU awards annual prizes for undergraduate projects in statistics or OR. The
criteria against which projects are judged are: the student’s capacity for
independent thought and work, the integrity of the methodology and theory,
applicability of results, impact in terms of novelty and communication.
The ASLU committee would like to encourage more institutions of higher
education to submit projects for consideration. These would typically be third
year undergraduate projects taken as part of the final year during 2007-2008.
Students can win £200, £100 or £50 for first, second and third prize
respectively.
Projects (no more than two per university) for this year’s competition should
be sent, by Friday 31st October 2008, to Dr Richard Gadsden, Mathematics
Education Centre, Schofield Building, Loughborough University Loughborough,
Leicestershire LE11 3TU, who is a member of the award committee.
Unfortunately, we shall be unable to return projects. Winning projects may be
displayed at future ASLU conferences as examples of good practice.
