Applications for SCBO Student Awards are now open.

Each year, SCBO awards prizes for the best student publication and conference presentation. Our student awards for 2025 will be presented at ICCB.

To nominate yourself for the student publication award, please check the eligibility requirements and send a pdf of your paper and proof of your student status (e.g. a copy of your student card) to awards@scboceania.org by May 15th 2025.

SCB Oceania students who indicated that they would like to be considered for the Student Awards Competition when registering for ICCB will be considered for the Oceania student presentation award.

Both awards will be judged by members of the SCBO Board on their scientific merit, clarity, innovativeness, and relevance to conservation and management. The winner(s) will be awarded SCB membership and a book voucher. 

Best of luck to all our student members!
