CHAL Awards

Awards

CHAL has instigated 3 different awards to recognize different types of service within and to ACS. Nominations for the 3 awards are made by CHAL’s subcommittee on Awards and Nominations, in conjunction with the CHAL Executive Committee. If you would like to serve on the subcommittee, or have a suggested nomination, please send an e-mail to [email protected] CHAL has also submitted nominations for ACS Fellow, each year. See the CHAL Fellows page (link to this) for further details. Additionally, CHAL consults with the ACS Governance Committee on Intellectual Property (insert a link) to discuss possible nominations for awards outside of ACS.
