Kalman Scholarships

We expect to cover the cost of accommodation for all students attending. To help cover remaining costs (e.g. travel and meals) NZ-based student participants are invited to apply for a Kalman Summer Scholarship.

The Kalman Summer Scholarships were established from a generous bequest in support of New Zealand mathematics from the late John Kalman, a former professor at the University of Auckland. Applicants will normally be expected to be studying for an Honours/Masters degree or a PhD.

Four or five Kalman Summer Scholarships will be awarded, based on academic merit and relevance of participation to their course of study. Scholarship recipients are expected to submit a full report by mid-February 2023, describing what they gained from their participation in the workshop.

Applicants should submit an academic transcript, brief CV, and a statement from their academic supervisor (or mentor) that indicates how participation in the summer meeting will benefit the student's development.

Applications should be sent by email to Prof. Rod Gover, the NZMRI Secretary, by 5 November 2022.
