The Larry Larson Graduate Student Award for Leadership in Applied Entomology recognizes Dr. Larry Larson's role as a leader and pioneer in insect management, and carries that legacy to the next generation of leaders in applied entomology. Gifts in honor and memory of him are a tribute to his tireless and lasting contributions to the science and practice of entomology. Only final-year master's students or first-year Ph.D. students are eligible. Applicants' research should address an applied entomological question. Also, students should have demonstrated and documented capability in the following areas: technical knowledge; communication; creativity; leadership; professionalism; a broad interest in entomology and science; and problem solving. Applicants must submit a brief summary of the student's research to include questions, rationale, methods, results and specific end-user benefits (to be written by the student); and two letters of recommendation demonstrating research impact or outcome, communications, creativity, and leadership. Please visit the award's website or contact the Entomological Society of America for more information.
