Re. HKSTS Outstanding Dissertation Paper Award
Dear colleagues and friends,
The Hong Kong Society for Transportation Studies (HKSTS) established the HKSTS Outstanding Dissertation Paper Award in 2005 to promote transportation research and education in Asia, as well as the Society’s own journals. The Gordon Newell Memorial Prize is dedicated to the late Professor Gordon Newell of the University of California at Berkeley in recognition of his significant contributions to scientific research and education in traffic and transportation theories. The initial donation for the prize came from a former student of Professor Newell. The winner will be received HK$10,000 (US$1 = HK$7.8) as a reward.
We encourage the PhD graduates who are citizens of an Asian country and who have completed their PhD studies within three years of the HKSTS Conference (www.hksts.org/conf.htm) at which the Award will be granted, are eligible to apply this award.
An applicant should submit his/her PhD dissertation, together with a full paper that is based on the dissertation, and a certificate from the university confirming the award of a PhD degree, email to HKSTS Secretariat: [log in to unmask] by 31 March 2017. The applicant must be the first author of the full paper, which must not have been submitted for publication or published elsewhere except for HKSTS journals. Further details of the Award can be found at: http://www.hksts.org/ODPA-Leaflet.pdf
