CSMB Scholarly Awards

Eligibility

Unless specifically stated that a nomination is for both awards, the Chair of the Nominations committee will contact nominators to ask permission for the consideration of nominees for the JMF Award in the CSP category prior to evaluation taking place. If the same nominee is selected as the top applicant for both the CSP and the JMF awards, the awardee must select the award of their preference and the next ranked candidate will be awarded the declined award.
