The International Conference on Establishment Statistics—which will take place in June of 2021 in New Orleans, Louisiana—is sponsoring a student contest with awards given in two tracks: nonresponse treatment and analysis/visualization of economic statistical data. The student contest will create interest and innovation in the establishment survey field by inspiring students and the faculty they work with to create interesting and challenging applications that test their technical skill and creativity.
The winner of each contest track will receive support to attend the conference and present their work at a special session.
- Participants must be current students at the time of submission.
- Students will perform their research independently or with a group of up to five students. However, support to attend the conference and present the work will only be awarded to one author from each track.
- Students are to carry out this assignment autonomously. Contributions from faculty advisers, if any, should be made clear in the report, as well as their expertise.
- The paper must be presented at the conference by one of the student participants.
Winners will receive $1,500 (USD) to be used toward registration and/or travel expenses to attend and present their papers.
