The BEST Award: 2010 Submissions and Award

Students should submit a written paper and supporting materials on their research project to: The 2010 BEST Award Selection Committee, c/o Ms Tameka Tisdale, 214 Old Chemistry Building, or via email attachments to tameka@stat.duke.edu

Submissions must be received before September 15th 2010. No submissions will be considered after that date.

The paper must include a complete description of the problem area, context and goals, and represent a scholarly work developing new ideas and models in that context, with details of the literature, modeling and computational developments, and relevant financial/econometric aspects.

The 2010 BEST Award Selection Committee will review all complete submissions received by the deadline with a view to making the award at a formal award ceremony later in Fall semester 2010.
