PhD Presentation Contest:
Starting in the year 2000 the EM Graduate School also organizes a PhD Presentation Contest within the framework of the EM Symposium. A jury consisting of the workshop organizers awards prizes for the best PhD presentation at each of the symposium workshops. The winning contributions were:
