2024-2025 Outstanding Undergraduate Researchers Award – Nominations Open!


By Julia Sepulveda, Senior Program Associate, CRA-E

The Computing Research Association (CRA) aims to champion a diverse, welcoming, equitable, and socially responsible computing research community. As such, every year we celebrate and recognize undergraduate researchers who demonstrate outstanding potential through the Undergraduate Researcher Awards

The Undergraduate Researcher Awards will accept nominations through Tuesday, October 15, 2024 at 9:00 pm ET. Nominations must be submitted by a faculty member. PhD-granting departments may nominate up to four students, and non-PhD-granting departments may nominate up to two students. To be eligible for the award, undergraduate students must be enrolled in an accredited North American college or university for the fall of 2024.

Multiple CRA Outstanding Undergraduate Researcher Awards will be granted, with additional nominees designated as runners-up, finalists, and honorable mentions. Award recipients will receive financial assistance of up to $1,500 to attend a research conference of their choice.
