ARANDA-ORDAZ PRIZE. XV CLAPEM

21-01-2019

The LARC-SLAPEM organizes, every two/three years, a prize to honor the memory of Francisco Aranda-Ordaz, a distinguished young Mexican statistician who died tragically in 1991. Sponsored by the Bernoulli Society, the Francisco Aranda-Ordaz Award is bestowed for one thesis in Probability and one thesis in Statistics written by students from Latin America, regardless of the country of the university offering the degree, or by students from other nationalities who received the degree from a Latin American university. The winners are invited to present their works at the CLAPEM meeting.

 

Theses defended during the period of May 2016 to April 2019 are eligible for consideration in this edition of the Award.

 

A complete submission consists of:

  • The complete dissertation, submitted in electronic form.
  • The official university final exam form, signed by the student's doctoral committee or by other university officials, as appropriate.
  • A letter from the thesis advisor stating that he/she agrees to submit the dissertation for consideration of the award committee.
  • A copy of the passport or other identification document attesting the nationality of the applicant, when the thesis is from a non Latin American university.

 

The official languages of the Prize are Spanish, Portuguese, English, and French. The Committee will consider other languages as an exception.
