ALLAN V. COX RESEARCH AWARD
The Allan V. Cox Research Award supports research grants in geophysics and geodynamics. The recipient is determined by the Geophysics & Geodynamics Division of GSA. This award is based on excellence, and the awardee will receive a certificate of achievement and recognition at the annual G&G business meeting at GSA.
DIVISION STUDENT RESEARCH AWARD
The Division Student Research Award also supports research grants in geophysics and geodynamics. The recipient is determined by the Geophysics & Geodynamics Division of GSA. This award is based on excellence, and the awardee will receive a certificate of achievement and recognition at the annual G&G business meeting at GSA.
How to Apply for a Student Research Award
For both awards, application is done via GSA here. Applicants must be members of the Geophysics and Geodynamics Division to be eligible for these awards. Become a G&G division member.
Applications for 2022 are due February 1, 2022 at 11:59 PM (MST).
