Description

The Alate Award honors students currently enrolled at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and other Minority-Serving Institutions (MSI) to promote interest in entomology and to stimulate interest in attending the ESA Annual Meeting. The applicant must be pursuing a degree (B.S., M.S., or Ph.D.) and studying specifically at least one insect in the field of entomology, or performing entomology-related research in a field such as biology, agricultural science, forestry, evolution, ecology, or environmental sciences. Each applicant must be currently enrolled in an MSI listed and planning to present during the Annual Meeting. Nominations can be made by anyone. Self-nominations are allowed.
