The Charles D. Coryell Award honors undergraduate students who have completed research projects in nuclear or nuclear-related areas. Each year there is a $1,000 prize to be awarded to the successful nominee(s). Contributions are judged on the basis of ingenuity, novelty, and potential usefulness. To be eligible, a student must have been an undergraduate at some time during the 12-month period prior to the deadline date for submission of applications for the award. The student may be sponsored by a faculty member at the home institution or by a research director at another institution where the student performed the work.
The Coryell Award nominations are due 06/01/2025.
To nominate a student for this award (which includes a certificate and a $1000 check), please submit a sample of the student’s work (in the form of a written report or a publication), together with a nomination letter from the research mentor that describes the extent and the nature of the student’s involvement in the research. These items should be emailed directly to the Award Committee Chairs (nathalie.wall@ufl.edu and deborah.penchoff@ucf.edu).
