Student travel award guidelines
The Australian Mammal Society has long recognised the crucial role of Honours,
postgraduate and other students in energising its Annual Meetings, as well
as in furthering studies in mammalogy more generally. To facilitate student
attendance at meetings, the Society has a Student Travel Award Scheme to
assist eligible students to get to and from its Scientific Meetings and
Symposia.
Honorary Life Members of The Australian Mammal Society
Awarded to a member who has provided long standing service to the society
or in the advancement of substantive knowledge of Australasian mammals.
Scruffy Award
This award is a light hearted award given to a member, who has through
a meritorious act of outrageous or incompetent behaviour, demonstrated
that even the most hard working, brilliant and productive members of the
Society are still human and can still cause us all to find humour in one
another's company.
