ASA Sections Announce Joint Student Paper Competition 

Applications are due November 15 at 11:59 p.m. ET for a paper competition for students and early-career statisticians and data scientists. The competition is sponsored by the Social Statistics, Government Statistics, and Survey Research Methods sections of the American Statistical Association.  

Competition winners will present their papers during a topic-contributed session at the Joint Statistical Meetings, taking place August 1–6, 2026, in Boston, Massachusetts. Competition winners will also be highlighted during each section’s business meeting at JSM. A subsidy of up to $1,000 is provided to each winner to cover travel expenses, and five awards will be granted.

Faculty members and supervisors and mentors of recently hired graduates should encourage students and mentees to compete for these awards.  

Winners will be notified by January 15, 2026.
