DIVISION AWARDS


Morton M. Traum Surface Science Division Student Award

The Surface Science Student Award was initiated in 1981. Morton M. Traum, then chair of the Surface Science Division, was the prime motivator in establishing the award. After Mort’s untimely death on 1 December 1982, the Executive Committee of the Surface Science Division renamed the award in his memory. The Morton M. Traum Surface Science Division Student Award is presented annually for the best student paper based on work leading to a Ph.D thesis. The papers are judged on technical content and quality of presentation.

The winner of the award will be announced at the beginning of the Postdeadline Discovery Session held on Thursday evening, November 16.
