2024 Student Paper and Poster Awards

2024 AAG Paleoenvironmental Change (PEC) Specialty Group Student Paper and Poster Awards
The Paleoenvironmental Change Specialty Group sponsors three annual awards to encourage student participation in the annual meeting and to recognize outstanding student research.  Competition for the award is open to undergraduate and graduate students (including those who have defended their Ph.D. within the last year). 

​Categories:

• Poster
• Undergraduate/Masters Student Paper
• PhD Student Paper

Students are encouraged to submit to the appropriate award category. For example, students in the early stages of their masters or doctoral research should apply for the poster competition. Those students nearing the completion of their respective degrees should consider applying for the paper sessions. The student must be either the sole author or the primary author of the paper, and must be the presenter at the meeting.

Judging criteria include:

2. the creativity and the quality of the methodology,
3. the validity of the conclusions drawn from the results, and
4. the clarity of the presentation
