Young Alpine Researcher Award

11.02.2013

The Revue de Géographie Alpine /Journal of Alpine Research, one of the oldest geographical journals in circulation, is celebrating its centenary in 2013 with a competition for young researchers working in Alpine studies.

PhD, post-doc and master's students are invited to submit scientific papers based on recent research on the Alps, or a context that includes the Alps, such as a comparative study dealing with the Alps and another mountain area.

Papers will be evaluated according to standard scientific publishing criteria and a jury will select the six best articles to be published in the journal, in both French and English (and possibly one other language used in Alpine countries).

The best contribution will be awarded a prize of 500 euros.

Submission deadline: April 30, 2013.
