The North American Regional Science Council (NARSC) Graduate Student Paper Award contest is held annually in conjunction with the North American Meetings of the Regional Science Association International (RSAI). This contest encourages the participation of young scholars by providing a forum for paper presentation and discussion by senior scholars in the field of regional science. Two separate competitions will be held for graduate student papers: 1) Student-Author Paper Competition: Eligibility for the award is limited to current Masters and PhD students, and/or recent graduates who completed their degrees after September 16, 2011. Co-authored papers are acceptable; however, all authors listed on a paper must meet the eligibility criteria above. 2) Graduate-Student-Led Paper Competition: Eligibility for the award requires that the paper’s “primary author” be a current Masters or PhD student, or a recent graduate who completed his/her degree within twelve months preceding the submission date. Papers with senior co-authors are acceptable; however, most of the substantive work and contribution of the paper must be directly attributable to an author who meets the eligibility criteria above. Those who wish to submit a paper to the NARSC Graduate Student Paper Award contest can indicate this when submitting the abstract (by August 1, 2012) by ticking the relevant box on the abstract submission page. The full paper must be submitted in electronic form by September 16th, 2012, to: Bruce Newbold, McMaster University newb...@mcmaster.ca
