As a member of the South African Mathematical Society (SAMS), you are invited to nominate candidates for two awards of the Society: the SAMS Award for Research Distinction and the SAMS Award for Advancement of Mathematics.
To ensure that a sufficient amount of nominations are received, the SAMS Council has approved an extension of the nomination period.
Further information about the description of these categories, and the nomination procedure, can be found here on the SAMS website.
Kindly submit your nominations to the Vice-President of SAMS, Dr. Simo Mthethwa (mthethwas4@ukzn.ac.za ), by no later than 30 June 2026.
Please note that nominations are not carried over from previous years. If a candidate was nominated in a previous year and was not selected, a completely new nomination must be submitted.
The SAMS Council strongly encourages members to consider nominating deserving colleagues for these prestigious awards.
