Application process

STEP 1

Application Form

It is expected that participants will have sufficient basic background in statistics, linear algebra, differential equations, optimisation and coding to be able to successfully participate in all aspects of the Winter School. As higher degree students in the mathematical sciences, it is likely they will have all the necessary background from their undergraduate studies. Applicants should address their level of knowledge and preparedness in the application.

Please follow the Apply Now link below to complete the AMSI Application Form.

  • Takes approx. 10-15 minutes to complete
  • You will be asked for your Participant Talk title
  • Students need to supply
    • the contact details of a Referee, who is able to comment on the applicant’s research and/or academic experience, and their suitability to the program.
    • a formal letter of support from a current supervisor, honours coordinator or head of school/department, vouching for the applicant’s capabilities and suitability to attend this program, as well as the benefit of attending the school from an academic standpoint. If applying for an AMSI grant, the letter should also support your request for financial assistance and include what funding is being provided by the home university. It need only be brief (100-200 words) and submitted on university letterhead or contain your supervisor’s formal email signature.
