Students – Submit Today for the Anita Rosen Gero Student Poster Awards

The deadline (April 27, 2007) for the 2nd Annual Anita Rosen Gerontology Award for Outstanding Student Poster is fast approaching. This award for outstanding gero student posters also comes with a cash prize of $1000. This is an excellent opportunity for BSW, MSW and PhD students to share their research and participate in a large, national social work conference.

To be eligible for a Rosen Award, students must submit a poster presentation to the 2007 CSWE Annual Program Meeting (APM) under the new Gero-Ed Track (in the Online Submission site, select “Gero-Ed” track and then “poster” as presentation format). Posters will be judged on-site and one student poster will be selected from each level (BSW, MSW and PhD).

Please review the CSWE APM Call for Proposals and the Rosen Award Guidelines before submitting your proposal on our Online Submission site. This award is made possible by a generous personal donation from Dr. Anita Rosen who has dedicated her career to advocating for social work students interested in gerontology and to the advancement of the field of gerontological social work education.
