Financial mathematics prizes

published Tuesday, 10 January 2012

In November 2011 the School of Mathematics was host to a Financial Mathematics "Career Talk and Prize Presentation" event where:

  • Daniel Tait received a prize for achieving first-place in the Financial Mathematics competition organised by Deloitte for Honours students of Scottish universities. The prize is awarded each year to the most distinguished student in a Financial Mathematics course in Scotland, so Daniel had to beat off strong competition from many different universities. He will receive a prize of £400, while the University receives a trophy to be held for a year until a new winner is crowned.

This year the prize was shared by two students:  Michael McSweeney & Jose Gregorio Rodriguez Villarreal.
