The RACI Western Sydney section honours prize will be awarded for the best
honours thesis produced in 2007 by a student who is resident and/or has studied
or undertaken research in Western Sydney1 throughout
the year. This area may be greater than you imagine; so if you have students, or
know colleagues who know students, please review the postcodes below to see if
they are eligible.
The 2008 prize is open to applicants enrolled in any university, within any department, school and/or faculty. The project must include either ‘pure’ or ‘applied’ chemistry. This could be applied to fields such as agriculture, horticulture material science, nanotechnology, pharmacy, neuroscience, medicine, biochemistry, biology, environmental analysis, forensics, or any other discipline.
We are hoping to increase the strength of our field of applicants and we are
looking for creativity, imagination and innovation in the use or application of
chemistry.
Note that examiner’s comments and final grades are not considered.
Students should forward a copy of their thesis plus a covering letter containing
a statement of their eligibility for the prize and personal details (including
