About this program
The American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT) offers the Doc Brown Futures Award, established in 2018 and endowed by Robert “Doc” Brown, to recognize early-career members who show excellence in contributions to AAPT and physics education and demonstrate potential for AAPT leadership. Recipients receive a $1,000 prize, a commemorative plaque, complimentary registration to an AAPT National Meeting with two nights’ lodging, reimbursement for reasonable travel to the AAPT Summer Meeting, and mentorship plus an opportunity to serve on a committee or task force. Applicants must be current AAPT members for at least three years and qualify as “early career” (no more than seven years full-time in the profession of physics education at the time of nomination); nominations—self-nominations accepted—should document the candidate’s AAPT involvement, leadership, and scholarship.
