All submissions are electronic (including copies of book chapters) and must be emailed to the Division Chair, Saba Bebawi (saba.bebawi@uts.edu.au). The deadline to submit the documents is March 29, 2024 (by 11:59pm GMT).
All nomination packages should be prepared by one person, and may come from the author, the nominator, or the publisher.
