Call for Submissions for BGA Medal 2024

The BGA is calling for submissions for the BGA Medal, which is awarded annually to a paper written by a BGA member (or members) for “meritorious contributions to geotechnical science or practice”. The award is based on the best published paper (in an international journal and from BGA, ISSMGE and ISRM conferences) authored or co-authored by a BGA member (or members) in the previous calendar year.

Submissions (comprising the paper and application form) for consideration of the BGA Medal award are invited for papers published in the calendar year.

Only one submission from a set of BGA authors/co-authors is allowed. This does not preclude a single author appearing on more than one submission if the other papers have a substantially different authorship.

Submissions should be made via the on-line submissions portal on the BGA website. Full details of the award, eligibility criteria and application forms can be found on the BGA website HERE.

The deadline for submissions is midnight on 31 January 2025.
