Please take a moment to read AEESP's Conflict of Interest Policy to ensure nominators and/or nominees do not pose a conflict of interest prior to submitting nominations.
When to apply:
Nominations open November 1, 2023 and will close January 31, 2024.
Complete nomination package includes:
- A nomination message to include items listed on the form below.
- A project summary written by the student, including an overview, the advancement of environmental science and engineering, and intellectual merit and broader impacts of the work (similar to an NSF proposal). This document is limited to 1200 words.
- A 2-page CV for the student, following NSF format.
These first-stage submissions will be evaluated on the contributions to the advancement of environmental engineering and science, intellectual merit and broader impacts of the research and clarity of presentation. The most highly ranked nominees will be invited to submit full-length dissertations for a second-stage review and consideration for a dissertation award. Second-stage evaluation criteria are similar to first-state review.
