The Korea Student Award was established to recognize academic accomplishments in any area of science or engineering in which electrochemical and/or solid state science and technology is the central consideration. The recipient must be a student who is pursuing a PhD at a Korean University and must be nominated by a university faculty member. A curriculum vitae for the student, listing publications and work experience, as well as the month and the year at which all university degrees were begun or completed is required. A letter of recommendation from the nominating professor, which should outline the student's strengths and weaknesses must also be submitted. It should answer the question: "Why do you wish to single out this student for the award?" Letters of recommendation from personnel in university, industry and government are also required.
