Thanks to
offlode
for providing
NZ$1000 in student prizes
, and for presenting those prizes at the conference dinner.
The NZSA has some funds available to support students at New Zealand Universities traveling to the conference. The amount available depends on how many students apply and the distance each has to travel. To be sure of consideration, any student interested in travel support should contact
Roger Littlejohn
before 14 August
.
Students are encouraged to present either a talk (but
the programme of talks is now full
, as of 8 August) or a
poster
; please look over the information about
Poster Presentations
and email
John.Haywood@msor.vuw.ac.nz
as soon as possible (and
certainly by 21 August
) if you want to present a poster at NZSA 2009.
Students only pay half the
fees
of other NZSA members, for both the conference and the
workshop
; any students who are not already members of NZSA get free membership for one year, which includes four issues of the
Australian & New Zealand Journal of Statistics
.
Student Prizes
