Early Career Scholar Award

This competition is for AIESEP members active in high-quality scholarship in physical education and sport pedagogy. The published guidance encourages applications during the first three years after PhD completion; it also requests proof of study from applicants still in doctoral studies. Contact the committee if your eligibility is unclear.

Send your application by email to Carla Luguetti at carla.luguetti@unimelb.edu.au.

Recipients receive a conference or congress registration-fee waiver and formal recognition. They must present an oral presentation or poster and participate in Early Career Scholar events. The committee states that it will notify recipients within one month of the final submission deadline.

The AIESEP Early Career Scholar Award (formally Young Scholar Award) was established in 2001 by former AIESEP Board Member Eitan Eldar (Israel). The intent of the award is to recognise early career scholars within the field who have made an outstanding contribution to the field and demonstrate scholarly promise.
