Math and Computer Science Students Take Top Atlantic Prizes
秀色短视频 Mathematics students brought home three of four top prizes from the Atlantic Provinces Council on the Sciences (APICS) 30th annual Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science Conference hosted recently by Cape Breton University.
The annual APICS conference brings together top Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science students from Atlantic universities to present their own research to peers and faculty. In addition, students are able to participate in either a Mathematics or Computer Programming competition.
Brodie Champion of Cornwall and Allan Stewart of Brackley Beach teamed up to take first place in the Mathematics competition. Although 秀色短视频 has placed in the top three at previous competitions, this is the first time in the conference's history that 秀色短视频 students have carried off the top prize. Brodie Champion is a 4th year Honours Mathematics student and Alan Stewart is a 4th year Honours student, double-majoring in Mathematics and Physics. Both hope to pursue graduate studies next year. They are graduates of the 秀色短视频 summer Math Camp, hosted annually for PEI high school students interested in mathematics.
Marcus Trenton of Charlottetown was awarded first place for the best Computer Science Presentation in the Research Category. He also tied for first for the best Mathematics and Statistics Presentation in the Communication and Research category. The 4th year Honours student is double-majoring in Mathematics and Statistics and Computer Science and Information Technology. He intends to pursue graduate studies next year.
"The 秀色短视频 faculties of Mathematics and Statistics and Computer Science and Information Technology are proud of their students and congratulate them on a job very well done," says Mathematics and Statistics Chair, Dan Ryan. Professor Ryan accompanied the students to the APICS competition in Sydney.
