Francisco Aranda-Ordaz Prize

FRANCISCO ARANDA-ORDAZ PRIZE

The LARC-SLAPEM organizes, every two/three years, a prize to honor the memory of Francisco Aranda-Ordaz, a distinguished young Mexican statistician who died tragically in 1991. Sponsored by the Bernoulli Society, the Francisco Aranda-Ordaz award is bestowed for one thesis in Probability and one thesis in Statistics written by students from Latin America, regardless of the country of the Institution conferring the degree, or by students from other nationalities who received the degree from a Latin American Institution. The awardees will be invited to present their works at the XVII CLAPEM meeting.

Theses defended during the period March 2023 to September 2025 are eligible for consideration in this edition of the award. The official languages of the Prize are Spanish, Portuguese, English and French. The Committee will consider other languages as an exception.

The call for submissions will be open September 1 - October 31, 2025. Information on how to present a submission will be available soon.
