PAS is pleased to provide up to two $500 awards in Spring and Fall each year to UWF anthropology students pursuing research and/or travel related to their thesis or to a major class project. This award is intended to enable students to perform research in non-local archives or collections repositories, present papers/posters at conferences, conduct costly analyses, or other needed studies. The applicant must be a currently enrolled UWF student in the Anthropology Department, either undergraduate or graduate. While all projects will be considered for the award, projects involving Pensacola/Northwest Florida topics will be given preference.

The next Student Award opportunity will be Fall of 2025. The recipients will be announced at the November meeting. Please submit all applications by 12:00pm on October 3rd.

Applications and submission information can be found here: PAS Student Award Application-GENERAL

Proposals should be turned in electronically to pensacolaarchaeologicalsociety@gmail.com
