Resolution of the Emmy Noether 2020 award

The prize Emmy Noether (1882-1935) is for students of the Mathematics degree who defend their Final Degree Project (TFG) at one of the universities of the principality. The first edition was in 2017 (projects defended in 2016).

  • Award amount: €800
  • Mention amount: €400

In case the jury awards more than one prize or ex aequo mention, the following rule will apply: the total amount distributed will be a maximum of 1600 €, and the endowment for a prize is double that for a mention.

Specific information (rules, participation form, etc.) regarding the current (or previous) call can be found in the featured news below. In the section resolutions section you will find all information about resolutions of previous calls (if accessible).

In this edition, the jury would like to note that the choice has been especially difficult due to the high quality of the projects presented. Practically all of them far exceed the expected level for a final degree project.
