Description
The Association for Asian Studies (AAS) Graduate Student Paper Prizes recognize outstanding papers presented by graduate students at the AAS Annual Conference. Each year, the association’s Area Councils offer best-paper prizes, making graduate student conference presentations the central focus of these awards.
The prizes recognize work presented at the annual meeting rather than a separately proposed research project or program of future work. The Area Councils administer the awards, with submission requirements and prize amounts determined by the individual councils. Graduate students should consult the council-specific award information on the program page to identify the requirements relevant to their conference paper.
