Submissions are assessed on meeting criteria including:

  • learning opportunities for the student,
  • equitable distribution of research assistantships among faculty, and
  • potential of the work to lead to a peer-reviewed publication or presentation of work.

Each year, the assistantships are awarded by the Student Assistantship Awards Committee, recipients of the prior year's Student Assistantship Awards. On the committee this year were Dr. Brittany Heintz Walters, Dr. Jacqueline Helfgott, Professor Kevin Maifeld, Dr. John Armstrong, and Dr. Patrick Schoettmer.
