Each year the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics (RSAA) in the ANU College of Science may offer an award known as the John Graham Summer Research Program Award ("the award").
The objective of the award is to enable undergraduate students with high academic achievements to take part in RSAA's Summer Research Program.
Funding for this award has been provided by Dr John Graham. Dr John Graham completed his PhD at ANU in 1964. His research interests included star formation, structure and evolution of galaxies, and variable stars. He was very active in a variety of astronomical societies over the years, including the American Astronomical Society and the Astronomical Society of the Pacific. He was an Emeritus Staff Member in the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism at the Carnegie Institution of Washington.
