Basis for Judging: Exceptional promise as a Graduate Student in any of the fields of the NPSS, exceptionally good work in those fields for currently unemployed NPSS members and an expectation that attendance to one or more of the Short Courses will result in improved possibility of obtaining a job in the NPSS fields.
