From now and until January 29, 2016, ASA is accepting nominations for its nine major awards.
Each August the American Sociological Association proudly presents awards to individuals and groups deserving of recognition.
ASA members are encouraged to submit nominations for the following ASA awards. The deadline for nominations is provided with each award criteria. Each award selection committee is appointed by Committee on Committees and approved by ASA Council. The award selection committees are constituted to review nominations. These awards are presented at the ASA Annual Meeting each August. Remember! The deadline for submission of nominations is January 29, 2016. Currently, the ASA presents the following awards:
