To increase awareness of women's ongoing contributions to the
mathematical sciences, the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) is
sponsoring an essay contest for biographies of contemporary women
mathematicians and statisticians in academic, industrial, and government
careers.
The essays will be based primarily on an interview with a woman
currently working in a mathematical sciences career. This contest is open to
students in the following categories: Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12, and College
Undergraduate. At least one winning submission will be chosen from each
category. Winners will receive a prize, and their essays will be published
online at the AWM web site. Additionally, a grand prize winner will have his or
her submission published in the AWM Newsletter.
