The Risk and Insurance Studies Centre (RISC) is holding a Student Research Competition (SRC) and is inviting mathematics students from across the globe, especially those at the undergraduate and master’s level, to participate.
Students interested in taking part in the competition are asked to submit solutions to their three mathematical problems by Oct. 15. The authors of the most complete solutions will be invited to present their work to the SRC organizers: professors Ed Furman in the Faculty of Science at York University, Niushan Gao of Ryerson University, Silvana Pesenti of the University of Toronto, and Ricardas Zitikis of Western University. Additionally, they will receive RISC SRC 2021 diplomas and, when appropriate, endorsements to apply to graduate programs affiliated with RISC.

RISC, led by Furman, is a national and international research hub and Organized Research Unit that pursues a holistic approach to the field of insurance and related topics.
