The Committee on Space Weather offers two student award opportunities for students participating in the 18th Conference on Space Weather at the 101th AMS Annual Meeting. Both of these opportunities are only available to students who have submitted an abstract for the conference. Both oral and poster presentations are eligible.

Student Presenter Registration:

The committee will be providing several small student presenter registration grants for students who submitted abstracts to present at the Space Weather Conference. Students who wish to apply are required to submit the following documents to either of the program chairs: 1) the presentation abstract, 2) statement of why they want to attend the meeting, 3) statement of commitment to attend if awarded, and 4) letter of recommendation from their adviser.

Student Presentation Awards:
We are pleased to offer two $100 student presentation awards to be given during the 18th Conference on Space Weather at the 101th AMS Annual Meeting. Award certificates and cash prizes will be given for the best student (undergraduate or graduate) oral and poster presentations given during the meeting. $50 runner-up awards are also available for exceptional presentations. The considerations for an award include:
originality of the work; relevance to space weather research and/or applications;
