The Wilson Family STEM Education Award is presented each year to an outstanding third-year undergraduate in Mathematics. Recipients are selected by a faculty committee and receive funding to research support to advance their independent projects. Past awardees have presented at national conferences and published in peer-reviewed journals. This award is generously funded by the Wilson Family in support of student-led mathematical discovery.

The Trevor Evans Award is presented annually to an outstanding Mathematics undergraduate enrolled at Emory University to recognize excellence and help defray educational expenses. Faculty nominate candidates each spring, and the Department of Math’s Undergraduate Committee selects the recipient based on academic achievement and contributions to the Department.

This award honors Dr. Trevor Evans (1925–1991), a British-born mathematician who specialized in abstract algebra, finite geometry, and the word problem. Evans earned his B.A. (1946) and D.Sc. (1960) from the University of Oxford and an M.A. (1948) from the University of Manchester. After serving as an Assistant Lecturer at Manchester, he moved to the U.S. in 1950, joining the University of Wisconsin–Madison before accepting a faculty position at Emory University in 1951.

At Emory, Evans chaired the Department of Math from 1963 to 1978 and was named Fuller E. Callaway Professor of Mathematics in 1980. He held visiting appointments at the Institute for Advanced Study, the University of Chicago, California Institute of Technology, the University of Nebraska, and Germany’s Darmstadt University of Technology. His students include Dr. Etta Zuber Falconer of Spelman University and recipient of the AWM’s Hay Award. Dr. Evans received Emory’s Williams Distinguished Teaching Award for Graduate Education (1972) and the Southeastern Section of the Mathematical Association of America's Distinguished Service Award.

The Chair's Award for Achievement began in 2016 and recognizes outstanding Emory undergraduates who exhibit dedication and exceptional performance in the field of Mathematics. Recipients are chosen by the Math Department Chair and the award committee based on instructor comments as well as outstanding success in course work. Winners receive a monetary gift to be used for any purpose. Sponsorship of this award is part of the Math Department's overall mission to encourage and promote excellence in undergraduate education.

The Deborah Jackson Award was made possible by a generous gift from Emory Alumna,  Dr. Deborah Jackson. This award honored the academic achievements of undergraduate juniors and seniors in the Department of Mathematics. As of 2016, this award is no longer distributed. 

The Putnam Prize Participation Honor is awarded to the Emory undergraduates with the best scores on The William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition is an annual, prestigious mathematics competition for undergraduate students in North America. It is administered by the Mathematical Association of America (MAA). The exam, held on the first Saturday in December, is designed to test problem-solving skills and originality in various areas of undergraduate mathematics. Prizes for participation are awarded the following spring.
