Early Career Award
The AEFP Early Career Award recognizes junior scholars with exemplary early career trajectories whose research substantially contributes to the field of education finance and policy. The intent of the Early Career award is to recognize outstanding pre-tenure / unpromoted faculty members or non-academic researchers at an equivalent stage in their careers. Dates may be extended for those who have taken family, medical, or service leave or have other extenuating circumstances. Selection criteria include the quality and policy relevance of scholarship in the area(s) of education finance and/or policy, the impact of the scholarship on actual policy or practice, and the relevance of the research to issues related to justice, equity, diversity, and/or inclusion. In addition, the awards committee will look favorably on nominees with a history of engagement with AEFP. The recipient will receive a monetary award and a plaque presented at the annual AEFP conference. Anyone may nominate individuals for the early career award. Self-nominations are welcome and encouraged. It is not necessary to be nominated by someone else. To nominate yourself or someone else, please do the following by the deadline (which will be announced in the fall).
