Description

The American Vacuum Society Graduate Research Award aims to recognize and encourage excellence in graduate studies in the sciences and technologies of interest to AVS. The nominee must be a registered graduate student in an accredited academic institution at the time in which the applications are due. Applicants are normally expected not to graduate before the award selection. The award may be given to a particular individual only once. Following the Awards Committee Meeting in the Spring or Summer, the top eight student nominees are notified and invited to present talks on their research to the Awards Committee in a virtual interview in late summer. After the interview, the remaining three students of the eight finalists will receive a Graduate Research Award. Criteria for selection of the awardees are excellence in research and academic record. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Vacuum Society for more information.
