Winners of the Junior Wiskunde Olympiade 2011
On Friday, October 14, the Junior Wiskunde Olympiade took place at the VU for the forth time. A total of 86 students competed for the prizes. Our congratulations to the winners!
Once a year the VU University Amsterdam hosts the Junior Wiskunde Olympiade. The best participants of the Kangoeroewedstrijd qualify to take part. This qualification is a great achievement in itself: about 80,000 students competed in the Kangoeroewedstrijd this year.
