National Awards


Through our national awards program we recognise and promote the contributions and achievements of our members.

Inspiration - Recognition - Prestige

 

The RACI National Awards are now open for applications and nominations and will close on 12 June 2022. Please note the Post Graduate Student Travel Award closes earlier on 22 May 2022. 

We encourage you to apply, nominate and to pass on the information to members that you feel should be recognised.

Please note, nomination should follow the spirit of the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) [view here] and the award adjudicators will consider a wide range of output measurements.  

For awards setting career time limits as criteria the ARC’s Research Opportunity and Performance Evidence parameters [ROPE] will be used to adjudicate any career interruptions experienced [including those resulting from Covid regulations].  [View here]
