The BGA prize for achievement in the study of geophysics by an undergraduate student
Each year the BGA awards prizes to undergraduate students engaged in the study of geophysics at UK Higher Education establishments. The recipients are nominated by their host institutions, and can be selected on any basis. Typically the award is for the student gaining the highest mark in a Geophysics project or similar, but need not be in their final year of study. If your organisation is not in the list below and you would like to be included, please contact the Competitions Officer.
