9th BGCE Student Paper Prize

At the 2023 SIAM CS&E Conference, February 26 – March 3, 2023, in Amsterdam, Netherlands, the 9th BGCE Student Paper Prize will be awarded for outstanding student work in the field of Computational Science and Engineering. The seven finalists will present their work in MS78  & MS115.

The Prize

Founder of the prize is the Bavarian Graduate School of Computational Engineering (BGCE), a consortium offering an honors track to the best students of three international Master’s programs in Computational Engineering at Technische Universität München (TUM) and Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU).

The prize winner will be invited to spend one week (air fare, accomodation, and local expenses covered) in Bavaria, visiting FAU and TUM and getting in contact with BGCE’s educational and research program, one of the most advanced ones in Europe. The main objective is to promote excellent students in CS&E and to foster international exchange at an early career stage. Eligible for the prize will be undergraduate and graduate students prior to receiving their PhD (at date of submission).

Application

Candidates are required to summarize their work in a short paper of at most 4 pages. The prize finalists will be asked to present their work at SIAM CS&E 2023 with a talk to be given in a special “CS&E Student Prize Minisymposium”. The papers and talks will be evaluated by an international prize committee. Excluded from the competition are only students from our own universities, FAU and TUM.
