SUBJECT: "Call for Nominations" 2019 Georgia Tech Sigma Xi Research Awards
Dear Colleagues,
Nominations are invited for faculty and student research awards sponsored by the Georgia Tech Chapter of Sigma Xi. The awards are made possible by the generous support of the Georgia Tech Research Corporation and the Ferst Foundation of Atlanta.
Awards will be presented at the Sigma Xi Banquet late spring (TBA). The faculty award winners will also be honored at the Georgia Tech Faculty and Staff Honors Luncheon on Wednesday, April 17, 2019.
For this year’s awards, nominations will be accepted until January 31, 2019. Please see the award categories and instructions for nomination submission at the Chapter's website:
http://sigmaxi.gatech.edu/georgia-tech-sigma-xi-research-awards/
Nominations for awards should be submitted by a school, department, or a laboratory. Some categories have limited number of nominations that can be submitted by each unit. For details, see
http://sigmaxi.gatech.edu/georgia-tech-sigma-xi-research-awards/nomination-information/
I would like to bring to your attention that, in addition to Best Ph.D. and M.S. Thesis Awards, we also offer up to two (2) Best Undergraduate Research Awards for outstanding undergraduate research as evidenced by a thesis, written report, or published paper(s). (An undergraduate student can be nominated for the Undergraduate Award up to one year after graduation.)
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Segried Winfrey (Chapter Coordinator) <segried.winfrey@me.gatech.edu> or myself <zhuomin.zhang@me.gatech.edu>.
Thank you for your assistance in promoting and encouraging applications (feel free to forward this email).
