Description

Sponsored by Bayer Crop Science, the ESA Student Activity Award will be presented annually to recognize a student for outstanding contributions to the Society, their academic department, and the community, while still achieving academic excellence. The nominee must be pursuing course work leading to a graduate degree with a focus in entomology. Individuals may receive the award providing that they have not graduated more than 12 months prior to the time the award is to be presented. The nominee must be an ESA member (student or regular) prior to January 1 of the year in which the award is to be presented; and must show evidence of an excellent academic record. A regular member returning for graduate study is eligible if membership status changes from regular to student membership within at least two years after resuming graduate studies. Nominations may be made by anyone. Self-nominations are allowed. Nominators must provide a CV which includes the Background Information, Research Section, and Service. Applicants must also submit two letters of recommendation from faculty members or other knowledgeable individuals that cover academics, contributions to ESA, and service to the community. Official or unofficial transcripts of all graduate education are also required. Please visit the award's website or contact the Entomological Society of America for more information.
