| The recognition of outstanding contributions to chemistry and the RACI awarded on, or very close, to retirement from their principal professional role. Inaugurated in 1996, a distinguished Fellowship is the recognition of highly distinguished contributions to the profession in academia, government or industry and the RACI. Awarded by the Board on, or very close to, retirement from their principal professional role, Distinguished Fellowships do not carry financial or post-nominal implications. Rarely would there be more than three Distinguished Fellowships awarded per year. Nominations for Distinguished Fellowships, which are restricted to Fellows of the RACI, are to be made by Branches, Divisions or two senior Fellows of the RACI. Nominations should provide a citation identifying reasons for recommendation of recognition of Distinguished Fellowship Award, highlights of the service to the RACI since admittance as a Fellow and highlights of the professional career of the nominee since admission as a Fellow. Four (4) copies of the nominations and supporting citations should be sent to The RACI National Office, 1/21 Vale Street, North Melbourne, Vic, 3051 by the 30 April.
