Application Details	Please visit the DNP web site at http://www.phys.uregina.ca/dnp/ To be considered for the award, a letter of nomination must be submitted by the thesis supervisor along with a copy of the thesis (preferably in electronic form) to the chief judge by Sept 30. The nomination letter should describe in detail the contributions of the student to the research work. The student's C.V., including a list of publications and conference contributions, should accompany the nomination. A letter from the Department Head or University Dean indicating that the thesis has been formally accepted by the University must also be submitted. The prize winner will be notified by Dec. 31 and asked to give an invited talk at the annual Winter Nuclear & Particle Physics Conference in February along with a seminar at TRIUMF. Travel expenses will be covered by the DNP and TRIUMF. The winner will also be required to submit a 1-2 page article suitable for publication in Physics in Canada describing the significance of their thesis work before they receive their cash award ($750) from the DNP. Both the supervisor and the nominee must be members of CAP and DNP. If fewer than 3 theses have been submitted in a given year, there will not be any award made and the submitted theses will automatically be considered in the following year's competition.
