SHC PRIZE

Each year SHC offers a prize of $400 for the best undergraduate essay, paper, or thesis that treats science, medicine, or technology in some historical, philosophical, or social context. The paper needs to have been written in that academic year. It need not be written for a class in the SHC program.

Students may nominate their own papers by presenting them to the SHC director by May 25 of each year. The prize committee will be constituted by the director of SHC, and the committee reserves the right to not award the prize in a given year or to split it among several deserving candidates.
