[Commlist] ICA Early Career Scholar Award

Subject: *ICA Early Career Scholar Award – nominations due 31 January *

Each year the International Communication Association (ICA) gives out an 
*Early Career Scholar Award* (formerly Young Scholar Award), which 
honors a scholar no more than seven years past receipt of the Ph.D. (for 
the award to be presented in 2020, nominees should have received their 
Ph.D. degree no earlier than 2013) for a body of work that has 
contributed to knowledge of the field of communication and shows promise 
for continued development. The selection committee judges the 
contribution and promise of young scholars based on the strength of 
published work, including its conceptual foundation and argumentative 
clarity, on the scholar's productivity at a given career stage, on the 
rigor of the research produced so far, and on the promise of existing 
work serving as a springboard for continuing scholarship. More 
information is available online at https://www.icahdq.org/page/Awards.

We welcome nominations representing all areas of the field and all parts 
of the globe where ICA members live. *The deadline for nominations is 
Jan. 31, 2020. *

*Early Career Scholar Award nomination requirements: ***

Only ICA members may make nominations and the nominee should also be an 
ICA member. Self-nominations are discouraged. Nominations from any 
country and in any language are encouraged. For nominations made in a

least three referees with superior content expertise and language

    apiece, speaking directly to each of the award criteria from the
    description (how the scholar has contributed to the field within
    communication, including the strength of conceptual foundations,
    argumentative clarity, rigor of research, and promise of continuing
    scholarship).
 2. The nominee's CV.
