AIMMS Award in Computational Modeling of Materials
First presented in 2008

The ACEnet Institute for Materials Modeling and Simulation (AIMMS) Awards in Computational Modeling of Materials are presented at three APICS student conferences each year. The Award is given for the best undergraduate presentation (oral or poster) using computational methods to study systems of interest to materials science.

The three disciplines are:
  • Chemistry
  • Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science
  • Physics and Astronomy


    Judging

    Each Award will be made following a procedure determined by the relevant APICS Committee. At any conference, if there is no suitable candidate, the judging committee has the right to not give an award.

    The decision of the judges is final.


    The Award

    Each AIMMS award is a $100 cash prize which is presented at the conference. By accepting the prize, the winner agrees to have his or her name, presentation title, and abstract provided to APICS and the sponsor.


    Sponsor

    The ACEnet Institute for Materials Modeling and Simulation (AIMMS) is dedicated to activities that support the materials modeling research community in Atlantic Canada. AIMMS is a cooperative effort with ACEnet, the high performance computing consortium that provides computational facilities to university researchers in the Atlantic Provinces.
