Battelle and BWIS instituted an annual award to encourage more young women to pursue careers in science and mathematics. The award of $1000 was presented to a female high school student with a strong interest and aptitude for science or mathematics from each of five selected school districts - Longwood High School, Riverhead High School, William Floyd High School, Shoreham-Wading River High School and Eastport/South Manor Central High School.
The principals of each selected school were requested to choose a
qualified candidate for the Battelle /Brookhaven Women in Science Award
from the current graduating class. Children of Brookhaven National
Laboratory employees were not eligible for this award.
