Awards & prizes
- The Albert Einstein World Award of Science
The “Albert Einstein” World Award of Science was created as a means of recognition, and as an incentive to scientific and technological research and development. It takes into special consideration those researches which have brought true benefit and well being to mankind. The recipient of the award is elected by the Interdisciplinary Committee, which is constituted of world-renowned scientists, among them 25 Nobel laureates. The award consists of a Diploma, a Commemorative medal, and $10,000 dollars (US).

- Baylor University — Robert Foster Cherry Award for Great Teaching
The Cherry Award program is designed to honor great teachers, to stimulate discussion in the academy about the value of teaching, and to encourage departments and institutions to value their own great teachers. The winner of the Cherry Award will receive a prize of $200,000 and will teach in residence at Baylor University during the 2006 fall or 2007 spring semester; travel expenses and a furnished apartment will be provided. To further Baylor University’s commitment to great teaching, the winner’s home department will receive $25,000.
- The Enrico Fermi Award
The Enrico Fermi Award is a Presidential award — one of the oldest and most prestigious science and technology awards given by the U.S. Government. It recognizes scientists of international stature for their lifetimes of exceptional achievement in the development, use, or production of energy (broadly defined to include the science and technology of nuclear, atomic, molecular, and particle interactions and effects). Fermi Award winners receive a citation signed by the President and the Secretary of Energy, a gold medal bearing the likeness of Enrico Fermi, and a $100,000 honorarium. In the event the Award is given to more than one individual in the same year, the recipients share $200,000.

- Fritz Pregl Prize
Fritz Pregl Prize is awarded annually since 1931 by the Austrian Academy of Sciences, from the funds left at its disposal by the Nobel prize-winning chemist Fritz Pregl, to an Austrian scientist for distinguished achievements in chemistry.
- Hertz Foundation Graduate Student Fellowship Awards
- Ig Nobel Prizes
- IUPAC Prizes for Young Chemists
The IUPAC Prize for Young Chemists has been established to encourage outstanding young research scientists at the beginning of their careers. The prizes will be given for the most outstanding Ph.D. theses in the general area of the chemical sciences, as described in a 1000-word essay.
- The MacArthur Fellows Program
The MacArthur Fellows Program awards unrestricted fellowships to talented individuals who have shown extraordinary originality and dedication in their creative pursuits and a marked capacity for self-direction. There are three criteria for selection of Fellows: exceptional creativity, promise for important future advances based on a track record of significant accomplishment, and potential for the fellowship to facilitate subsequent creative work. The MacArthur Fellows Program is intended to encourage people of outstanding talent to pursue their own creative, intellectual, and professional inclinations. In keeping with this purpose, the Foundation awards fellowships directly to individuals rather than through institutions. Recipients may be writers, scientists, artists, social scientists, humanists, teachers, entrepreneurs, or those in other fields, with or without institutional affiliations. They may use their fellowship to advance their expertise, engage in bold new work, or, if they wish, to change fields or alter the direction of their careers.

- National Science Foundation (NSF) — Alan T. Waterman Award
The annual award recognizes an outstanding young researcher in any field of science or engineering supported by the National Science Foundation. In addition to a medal, the awardee receives a grant of $500,000 over a three year period for scientific research or advanced study in the mathematical, physical, medical, biological, engineering, social, or other sciences at the institution of the recipient’s choice.
- National Science Foundation (NSF) — The National Medal of Science
The National Medal of Science was established by the 86th Congress in 1959 as a Presidential Award to be given to individuals “deserving of special recognition by reason of their outstanding contributions to knowledge in the physical, biological, mathematical, or engineering sciences.”

- Merck Index Award
for an outstanding student in chemistry. Award: Merck Index (engraved with name of student).
- Firestone Medal
for the best honors thesis (chemistry is pooled with several other departments and programs each with fewer than ten honors theses). Note: honors in chemistry does not require a thesis. Award: engraved bronze medal and $200.
Any person can be considered for the award who has made important chemical research contributions which have had a significant, positive influence on mankind. The award is intended to recognize contributions that have not previously been rewarded in a similar manner.
The Norman Hackerman Award in Chemical Research was established by the Foundation to honor Scientific Advisory Board Chairman, Norman Hackerman, and to encourage and recognize young chemical scientists in Texas for their past research endeavors. The award will be made on an annual basis, when warranted, to a younger scientist who is age 40 or younger on June 30 for the year in which nominated and should have spent the most recent three (3) years doing chemical research in Texas.
The Wolf Foundation aims to award prizes to outstanding scientists and artists — irrespective of nationality, race, color, religion, sex or political views — for achievements in the interest of mankind and friendly relations among peoples. Since 1978, five or six prizes have been awarded annually in the Sciences. Prize fields comprise: Agriculture, Chemistry, Mathematics, Medicine, and Physics. In the Arts, the prize rotates annually among Architecture, Music, Painting, and Sculpture.

Featured Periodic Table
Theodor Gray’s Periodic Table of the Elements
Sometimes referred to as the most beautiful Periodic Table, users can click on any element to see hundreds of pictures, stories and facts. This website is a complete periodic table reference containing just about all the information a student would need to know about each of the chemical elements. It is based on a combination of research-grade technical data with a very large volume of text about, and photographs of, the elements and their applications.
