Call for submissions: 2022-23 Rural Education Dissertation of the Year Award

  • Submission deadline: Monday, Jan. 2

The American Educational Research Association (AERA) Rural Education Special Interest Group seeks to promote and recognize rigorous research among new scholars that can influence policy and practice to improve the educational lives of rural children.

The awards committee will accept nominations from any research tradition in education, sociology, history, and other fields, and in which the rural context is prominent in the conception, research design, execution, conclusions, and recommendations (if any). Dissertations in which the word rural is uncommon are not likely to qualify to be judged. AERA membership is not required.

Please view the call for submissions for submission requirements.
