Bouquet from the Education Committee Placed on 4 June 2025

Albeit delayed, the Education Committee has recently awarded a bouquet for quartile 3 to Felix Schwenninger for his continuous commitment to high quality education and for his genuine interest in students' well-being and development across mathematics. Although Felix was not involved in teaching within the programme during quartile 3, students still wanted to showcase their appreciation for him as a follow-up to his nomination for the AMEP (Applied Mathematics Education Prize).

The Education Committee would like to sincerely thank Felix Schwenninger for all of his efforts and hopes that students will continue to appreciate his hard work.
