2015 JSA Thesis Prize call for nominations: A message from Haiyan Gao

The UGBoD will award the "2015 JSA Thesis Prize" for the best Jefferson
Lab related thesis at the Annual Users Group meeting, scheduled June
20-22, 2016.

For the 2015 competition, the deadline is February 15, 2016 (we thank JSA
for once again fully funding this prize). A complete package requires a
nomination letter by a senior scientist giving the name and institution
of the person being nominated and the names of three people who will
send letters of recommendation, along with a copy of the thesis. All
materials must be submitted electronically. The three letters of
recommendation must be sent before the deadline, as well; it is up to
the nominator and the candidate for the Prize to follow up on this.

Theses completed during the calendar year 2015 are eligible, as well as
theses completed during the last quarter of 2014 (if they haven't been
submitted before). The thesis prize submissions will be judged initially
by members of UGBoD, followed by a panel of independent experts to
select the final winner. Criteria for evaluation include quality of the
written thesis, contribution of the student to the work, and
contribution to JLab physics/community.

All materials must be sent by email to Lorelei: lorelei at jlab.org

Please contact the chair of UGBoD (gao at phy.duke.edu <https://mailman.jlab.org/mailman/listinfo/cuga>) for any questions.

This project is supported by the JSA Initiatives Fund Program
(http://www.jsallc.org/IF/IFProjects.html), a commitment from the JSA
owners, SURA and PAE Applied Technologies. Initiatives Funds support
programs, initiatives, and activities that further the scientific
outreach, promote the science, education and technology of the Jefferson
Lab and benefit the Lab's extended user community in ways that
complement the Lab's basic and applied research missions.
