Nominations for Distinguished Lectureship Award on the Applications of Physics

Would you like a colleague to be recognized for all that terrific work done over many years? The APS Committee on Careers and Professional Development (CCPD) and FIAP award an annual Distinguished Lectureship for just this reason. The goal is to honor physicists in industrial and other non-academic careers for their significant contributions to the advancement of physics of a technical, industrial, or entrepreneurial nature. The award recipients are recognized at a national meeting and will give a minimum of three lectures over a term of one year. The Distinguished Lectureship presentations should discuss key aspects of the recipient’s career and professional development in physics, they should be interactive and engaging, and they should be aimed especially at physicists early in their careers. The Distinguished Lectureship will include a $5,000 award and reimbursement of travel costs up to $5,000. For more information on the award - including the nomination process, see the Distinguished Lectureship Award page. The deadline for submission of nominations for the 2016 Distinguished Lectureship is September 1, 2015.
