Please read the full descriptions of the DPS prizes and awards and follow the links to the individual prize and award pages to see eligibility requirements and lists of past recipients.  The Eberhart Award has different rules and procedures than the other DPS Prizes; please see its page for more information.

A complete nomination submitted by the deadline will be considered by the Prize Subcommittee for three (3) years (i.e. for this year's award, next year's award, and the year after that), or for the duration of a candidate's eligibility, whichever is less.  Past nominees may be re-nominated after the expiration of a prior nomination.
