The Competition has been administered by the Department of Economics at The University of Auckland Business School since 2008. The 55 minute examination paper contains 40 multiple choice questions that test classroom theory and general knowledge of current economic issues. The New Zealand Economics Competition has grown in size and reputation since its inception in 1997, becoming the largest and most prestigious competition of its kind for secondary students. One of its aims is to promote the study of Economics. This year 2,707 students from 125 schools throughout New Zealand entered the Competition. Tonight is an opportunity to recognise some of the students who have achieved outstanding performances. We also wish to express our gratitude to teachers and principals, whose contribution makes the Competition possible. The New Zealand Economics Competition is sponsored by The University of Auckland Business School and the Kelliher Economics Foundation. Established in 1964, the Kelliher Economics Foundation is aimed at encouraging secondary school students to pursue tertiary studies in economics.

He was awarded a Harkness Scholarship and obtained an MBA at Stanford University, California. On his return to Auckland he completed an MCom with first class honours in Economics. Hugh was an executive with the Fletcher Group for 26 years, and deputy chief executive or chief executive for 17 of those years. During this time, the annual compound total shareholder return (dividends plus share price appreciation) was 16.9%, versus inflation (CPI) of 6.9%. During the 90s, when Hugh was CEO, Fletcher Challenge had more than $10 billion of assets and 30,000 employees with activities in most continents in the forestry, pulp and paper, oil, gas, petrochemicals, construction and building materials industries. Hugh retired as an executive in 1997. Since then he has had a number of non-executive directorships, as well as advisory board and trustee roles, including on The University of Auckland Council for 12 years (four as Chancellor). He currently holds directorships at the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, Fletcher Building, Insurance Australia Group, Vector, Rubicon and the Dilworth Trust. Hugh is married to the Chief Justice, the Right Honourable Dame Sian Elias, and they have two adult sons, both graduates of The University of Auckland. 4 5 11075 Economics Competition Programme 2012.indd 5 11/10/2011 2:45:07 PM Department of Economics staff profiles Professor Basil Sharp BAgCom Canterbury, DipAgr, DipVFM Lincoln(NZ), MS, PhD Wisconsin Head of Department of Economics Basil has a PhD from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he majored in the economics of natural resources. He joined The University of Auckland in 1990 after holding a position at the University of Canterbury for ten years. Basil specialises in the economics of natural resources, and is particularly interested in applying economic models to contemporary resource issues in New Zealand. He has advised government on water management, energy policy, and assisted with the introduction of New Zealand’s world leading fisheries management system. It is quite common that impacts associated with resource development are not priced in the market. Basil, with colleagues at Lincoln University, led the development of non-market valuation methods in New Zealand. These methods now find application in the Environment Court dealing with hydro-electricity development, the allocation of water between competing uses and resource consents for wind farms. Basil is director of the Energy Centre at The University of Auckland, which undertakes research on energy and resource markets, and transport economics, that is of relevance to business and the community. The Centre offers numerous courses, including a national summer school on energy economics. He has also consulted private and public sector clients and is associate editor of the Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics. Associate Professor Matthew Ryan BA, BCA(Hons) Wellington, MA, PhD Yale Deputy Head of Department of Economics Matthew was an undergraduate student at The University of Auckland from 1986-89, majoring in economics and philosophy. He has a PhD in Economics from Yale University and specialises in microeconomic theory. Matthew’s research is largely concerned with the mathematical modelling of economic systems and he is a co-founder of the Centre for Mathematical Social Sciences (CMSS), based in the Department of Mathematics at The University of Auckland. His work includes the analysis of internet auction markets, such as TradeMe, where he and his collaborators have studied the seller’s optimal choice of reserve price, optimal re-listing decisions and the effects of seller bidding on auction revenues, amongst other issues. Matthew is an associate editor of New Zealand Economic Papers. 6 7 11075 Economics Competition Programme 2012.indd 6 11/10/2011 2:45:07 PM Department of Economics staff profiles Professor Tim Hazledine MA Canterbury, Otago, PhD Warwick Professor Tim Hazledine is a specialist in the economics of firms and markets, which is also known as Industrial Organisation (IO). Born and brought up in Dunedin, Tim was educated at the Universities of Otago and Canterbury before heading overseas to study for his PhD at the University of Warwick. During his 20-year OE, he taught at Warwick, Balliol College Oxford, Queen’s University in Ontario and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, and also worked for the Canadian Government and as an independent consultant. Tim’s research and policy interests include the application of economic analysis to resource management policy in New Zealand, as well as the ever-interesting issue of pricing and competition in national and international airline markets. The latter topic was spurred by his involvement several years ago in the well-known Air New Zealand/Qantas strategic alliance competition case, where it became apparent that there were a number of gaps in our understanding of how competing airlines set their prices, and also how the new low-cost carrier business model would impact established or “legacy” airlines. Tim’s research has resulted in published papers extending our useful knowledge of how airlines use revenue management to increase their passenger yields and the implications this has on viable business strategies, competition and regulation. Richard Frogley BCA, MCA(Hons) Wellington Richard was the national winner of the New Zealand Economics Competition when it was run for the first time in 1997. Since then he has completed a Bachelor of Commerce, majoring in Economics and Econometrics, and a Master of Commerce with first class honours in Economics at Victoria University of Wellington. He has worked as an investment strategist with AMP Capital Investors in Wellington and London. He also spent four years working as an investment strategist with the New Zealand Superannuation Fund in Auckland. Richard currently tutors microeconomics and macroeconomics at The University of Auckland. 6 7 11075 Economics Competition Programme 2012.indd 7 11/10/2011 2:45:07 PM New Zealand Economics Competition 2011 Merit List High Distinction Awards Year Alex Ainsworth Rangitoto College 12 Sam Allan Aquinas College 13 Petar Andrejic Onslow College 12 Alen Aniyan Meenchira Wellington College 13 Sylvie Arnerich Wellington East Girls' College 12 Harkaran Aujla Taupo-nui-a-Tia College 13 James Kenta Azuma Glendowie College 12 Daniel Baider Hutt International Boys' School 13 George Barlow Hamilton Boys' High School 12 Chris Barrett St Peter's College (Auckland) 12 William Bowden Whangarei Boys' High School 12 Lauren Broughton Newlands College 13 Michelle Bull Kapiti College 12 Parit Burintrathikul Auckland Grammar School 13 Sam Butcher Middleton Grange School 12 Ben Chambers Mt Albert Grammar

  • Next Top Engineering Scientist 2015 Judges Report
    Next Top Engineering Scientist 2015 Judges report The seventh annual “Next Top Engineering Scientist competition” was held from 9am to 6pm on Saturday August 1st, 2015. The question posed was “If a New Zealand student uploads a video clip that goes viral, how long will it take before 1% of the world’s population has seen it?” Teams calculated answers that ranged from just a few minutes through to never. The quality of submissions was generally high, with many teams using innovative approaches to solving the problem, including an increasing number of teams making use of computer programming. As with previous years the competition problem was purposefully constructed to be open-ended in nature. To answer the problem required teams to make sensible assumptions around various aspects of the problem including (but not limited to): • The definition of a viral video • The characteristics of the video (e.g. language, length and genre) • The potential audience • The propagation channels (e.g. youtube, facebook, twitter, etc.) Participation Statistics We had 179 teams from 68 schools participate this year (from Dargaville and Whangarei up in the north down to Oamaru and Dunedin in the South). 146 teams had four members and 33 teams had three members. The break down by year level was as follows: Year 11 1 Mixed year 11/12 2 Mixed year 11/13 1 Year 12 70 Mixed year 12/13 29 Year 13 76 A total of 173 teams managed to get a report in by the 6pm deadline and we had many “Action shot” photos submitted during the course of the day.
