2017 AAG Sexuality and Space Specialty Group Student Paper Competition

 

The Sexuality and Space Specialty Group of the Association of American Geographers is pleased to invite submissions for the 2017 Sexuality and Space Student Paper Competition. Winners will be notified prior to the 2017 Annual Meeting of the AAG in Boston. The submission deadline has been extended to Tuesday, March 21, 2017.

 

Eligibility: 
Any student currently enrolled in an undergraduate, masters or doctoral degree program in Geography or a related discipline may submit a paper written in the past year. Papers are welcome from students at institutions in or outside of the United States. Students do not necessarily have to be presenting a paper at this year's annual meeting of the Association of American Geographers to be eligible for an award.

 

Requirements: 

We are seeking high-quality student papers that make an original contribution to the study of sexuality and space. Papers should be 4000-6000 words in length (including explanatory footnotes/endnotes, but excluding references), with an additional 100-200 word abstract. Figures and images should be included as separate pages rather than embedded within the text. Papers should be properly referenced, although students may choose the citation method they think appropriate. Papers should be in English.
