Brunton Award

Description

The AWG Brunton Award promotes the future of field mapping and data acquisition for the upcoming generation of people whose gender identity has been historically underrepresented in the geosciences. Applicants should have a passion for and exceptional experience with field work, including internships, field camp, coursework with a field-based research component, or research. Applicants may be advanced undergraduate undergraduate or graduate students (any year). Applicants should have performed field work as an essential component of undergraduate or graduate research, internship, field camp, or other type of field project. Virtual field studies (e.g. satellite data, drone mapping) completed during the pandemic will be considered. Applicants must have future plans to continue in the geosciences, with fieldwork as an integral part of their graduate degree or career; and promote the fundamental value and need for field-based studies within the geoscience profession through project results, quality of work, and capabilities of the applicant. A letter of recommendation from the primary field mentor is also required and should be sent directly by the recommender. Please visit the award's website for more information.
