Tuesday, 19 December 2023 Another award for Đorđe Mitrović, this time in the field of combinatorics

Đorđe Mitrović, UP FAMNIT alumni, received the CMSA Penfold Street Student Prize for the best talk by a student at the 45th Australian Combinatorics Conference.

With this student award, named in honour of Anne Penfold Street, who was the first President of the CMSA (Combinatorial Mathematics Society of Australasia), CMSA encourages students to attend Australasian combinatorics conferences and prepare good presentations for student lectures.

Contributions are evaluated on the basis of several criteria: motivation and setting of the general context, methods used to present the material, organization and structure of the lecture, originality of the substance of the lecture and rapport with the audience.

The laureate of the award receives 500 US dollars.

The Australian Conference on Combinatorics (ACC), at which the CMSA Penfold Street Student Prize is being awarded since 2001, is an annual CMSA conference covering all areas of combinatorics in mathematics and computer science. This year’s edition of the event was the 45th.

Once again, we sincerely congratulate our alumni and wish him much success in the future!
