ACA Graduate Student Award

The Association of Consulting Archaeologists is pleased to announce the ACA Graduate Student Award. The ACA Graduate Student Award is a $500 award that can be applied towards tangible costs related to Thesis or Dissertation research. The goal of the award is to provide funding for graduate students in Alberta, and worthy candidates from elsewhere, to conduct research using data developed by Alberta consulting archaeologists. This award is targeted towards students, at the Masters or Doctoral level, enrolled in graduate studies in an archaeology, anthropology, or related department at an accredited Alberta post-secondary institution. Consideration will also be granted to graduate students in similarly accredited programs elsewhere who have worked on archaeological consulting projects within Alberta and who have a letter of reference from a qualified permit holder in Alberta. ​

The deadline to submit applications for the 2023 Graduate Student Award is March 24, 2023. Award recipients will be notified by April 6, 2023. Please see information post linked below for details on award criteria and how to apply.
