This award was established in 1966 in honor of the late Arthur Holly Compton to recognize and encourage outstanding contributions to education in nuclear science and engineering.  The award is funded through an endowment by the wife of Edward Malinckrodt, Jr. and by George E. Malinckrodt, and is administered by the Education and Training Division.

The award recipient must have made an outstanding contribution to education in the field of nuclear science and/or engineering, but does not have to be an ANS member or work primarily in the education field.  An engraved plaque and a monetary award of $2,000 to both the recipient and the recipient's academic institution are presented at the ANS Annual Meeting.

Nomination forms are available at this web site or from ANS headquarters.  Eight sets of the nomination form and supporting materials should be sent to ANS headquarters by March 1.
