Convention Poster Awards

The purpose of the poster award is to recognize outstanding work completed by a student and an early career professional who presents a poster at one of the Division 47 poster sessions at the annual APA Annual Convention. Recipients of this award will be given award memorabilia at the business meeting.

The poster awards are offered to one graduate student and one early career professional per year at the convention. A student must be the first author on the abstract to win the student poster award. An ECP must have received their most recent degree no more than 10 years before the award decision to win the ECP poster award.

There is no formal application for this award. All Division 47 poster submissions are automatically considered through the division’s blind abstract review process. The student poster and the ECP poster earning the highest overall scores from abstract reviewers are recognized with this award.
