CAPEES-Carina Frontier Research Award

One award will be given in 2024 to recognize an outstanding tenured or tenure-track professor who is considered a pioneer in a research area of Environmental Science and Engineering with original and widely recognized contributions. The awardee will receive an award certificate (or a plaque) and a cash award of $500. 

Eligibility Requirement:

1. Nominees must be either early career or lifetime CAPEES members at the time of nomination, but nominators do not have to be CAPEES members.

2. Nominees from award nomination in previous years can be re-nominated, as long as the nominees still meet the eligibility requirement. The nominators may submit updated materials before the deadline.
