The Frederic Esser NemmersPrize in Mathematics is awarded biennially from Northwestern University . It was initially endowed along with a companion prize, the Erwin Plein NemmersPrize in Economics , as part of a 14 million donation from the Nemmers brothers. They envisioned creating an award that would be as prestigious as the Nobel prize. To this end, the majority of the income earned from the endowment is returned to the principal in order to increase the size of the award. Even so, it is still believed to be the largest monetary awards in the United States designated specifically for academic excellence in mathematics. ref Observer Currently, the award carries a 150,000 stipend and the scholar spends 10 weeks in residence at Northwestern University.

The Erwin Plein NemmersPrize in Economics is awarded biennially from Northwestern University . It was initially endowed along with a companion prize, the NemmersPrize in Mathematics Frederic Esser NemmersPrize in Mathematics . Both are part a 14 million donation from the Nemmers brothers, who envisioned creating an award that would be as prestigious as the Nobel prize. Five of the award recipients Aumann, Diamond, McFadden Prescott, and Sargent have subsequently been awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics. The award is given to recognize work of lasting significance in the respective disciplines. In particular, the prizes recognize major contributions to new knowledge or the development of significant new modes of analysis. Currently, the award carries a 150,000 stipend, believed to be the largest monetary prize for economics in the U.S., and the scholar spends 10 weeks in residence at Northwestern University.

The Michigan MathematicsPrize Competition MMPC is an annual high school mathematics competition held in Michigan . First founded in 1958, the competition has grown to include over 10,000 high school participants although middle schoolers may also participate through a high school . The director and host of this competition changes every three years, the most recent director being Stephanie Edwards of Hope College. This competition consists of two parts, which are added together to determine score Part I A 40 question, multiple choice exam open to all Michigan high schoolers Part II A 5 question, proof exam given only to the Top 1000 scorers on Part I The Top 100 scorers on the combined score of both parts of the competition are honored at an awards banquet, usually at the host university, although recent years have seen more than 100 people being awarded due to ties. Problem difficulty The problems on the competition range from basic algebra to precalculus and are within the grasp of a high schooler s mathematical knowledge. The contest only contains concepts at school, which means that geometry and combinatorics are generally omitted. Grading For each correct answer on Part I, one point is awarded for a maximum score of 40 points. Part II is graded in intervals of 1.2 points, with each problem gaining a maximum of 12 points. The test is graded out of 60 points. The highest possible score on this test is 100 points. While no one has ever scored a perfect, recent scores have been in the high 90s the highest being a 99, achieved by Allen Yuan of Detroit Country Day School in 2009 . Awards The Top 100 are invited to an awards banquet. Although the Top 50 are denoted as bronze, no actual medal is awarded. Likewise, the Top 10 and Top 3 are called silver and gold respectively but do not receive medals. The Lower 50 are deemed honorable mentions and receive a gift card certificate ...
