[GOAL] ETD2016 - NDLTD Awards for innovation and leadership in the field of electronic theses and dissertations

[Joachim SCHOPFEL]

We are very pleased to announce that nominations for the ETD innovation and leadership awards are now being accepted.

The Nomination deadline is May 31, 2016.

The Innovation Award is open to current students completing a thesis or dissertation.


Innovative ETD Award


The intent of this award is to support current graduate students in the creation of innovative ETDs. We anticipate students will use the award to assist in the purchase of specialized software, computer equipment or other technical support needed in the production or publication of their ETD. Nominations for this award should indicate how the award would support the application and integration of renderings, photos, data sets, software code or other multimedia objects in the student’s ETD.



ETD Leadership Award


This is open to individuals whose leadership and vision has helped raise awareness of the benefits of ETDs and whose efforts have improved graduate education through the use of ETDs. Nominations should include details about the individual's ETD related activities and how the nominee's leadership has made significant advances in the area of ETDs at the local, regional, national or international levels.
