Student Award Opportunities

The AMS 22nd Conference on Atmospheric Chemistry (22ndATMChem) is proud to provide six outstanding student paper awards. The outstanding student paper award ($250 each) recognizes outstanding student papers based on evaluations of both the submitted paper abstracts and corresponding oral or poster presentations. In particular, the student selected for the award should demonstrate outstanding qualities, including the following:

• significance of the work and originality and creativity of the approach;
• explanation of methods;
• visual clarity (clarity of figures, appropriate font sizes, effective use of space, headings, etc.);
• organization and logical structure (e.g., clearly stated questions, results and conclusions);
• conclusions supported by data and analysis;
• author’s knowledge of the subject matter including awareness of prior research in the field;
• and ability to answer questions.

To be eligible for the awards, you must be a full-time undergraduate or graduate student enrolled at a university, and you also must be the lead author, personally presenting the work. The student needs to indicate whether he/she wishes to be considered for a travel award when submitting the abstract.

The 22ndATMChem program chairs and the session organizers will review the abstracts and may request the student to provide references for his/her work, such as recommendation letter or/and school transcripts, before making a selection for the travel awards. Evaluation of oral or poster presentations for the outstanding student paper awards will be also conducted at the meeting by the program chairs and session organizers.

How to apply: for the outstanding student paper award, the student author should indicate in Confex if he/she would like to be considered for the student paper/poster awards. Winners of the outstanding student paper award will be notified on 14 February 2020
