Undergraduate Prizes
Each year a number of mathematics prizes, carrying a small monetary award, are given to undergraduate students. The prize money for these awards comes from interest on endowments for the various prizes. In some cases, the prizes are given in part on the basis of performance on special examinations given in the Spring semester.
