SETAC North America Awards and Fellowships are divided into 3 categories: Professional, Research Fellowship and Student Awards.

Each award category is evaluated by separate guidelines but maintains the intent of the Society's award process. Unless an award specifies otherwise, candidates may 1) be self-nominated or nominated by an individual or group; 2) be from the North America, Asia/Pacific, or Latin America geographic unit; and 3) be SETAC members or non-members. Recipients of these awards are announced each year at the SETAC North America Annual Meeting.

Administration and Oversight

The SETAC North America Awards and Fellowships Committee is responsible for the oversight of all the SETAC North America awards. There are at least 30 regular members of the committee, including the committee liaison, chair and subcommittee chairs. The duties of this Committee are to 1) solicit nominations and to select recipients for each award given by SETAC North America; 2) administer fellowships to students, including soliciting applications and selecting the awardees; 3) identify funding sources that will allow SETAC to expand the number of available awards and fellowships; 4) coordinate with prospective sponsors of awards and fellowships to ensure the timely and smooth implementation of new programs; and 5) coordinate with existing awards and fellowship sponsors to ensure their satisfaction with the operation of their SETAC award or fellowship.
