scienceXart success: stay tuned for the winners next month

This year, more than 850 individual school students from across Australia submitted nearly 1000 entries to the scienceXart photographic competition.

This success is due to those organisations that made this year’s theme of spot the maths a fun and engaging activity for school students from Foundation to Year 12. A special thanks goes to the competition sponsors, the Australian Mathematical Society and the Statistical Society of Australia, and to the National Committee for Mathematical Sciences for hosting the competition. scienceXart was also made possible by the Academy’s reSolve program.

We are currently shortlisting competition entries before the judging panel makes its final selection of winners and placegetters. Winners will be announced in November.

The 2020 competition marks the centennial anniversary of the International Mathematical Union with its mathematical and statistics theme.
