The student award of the German Society for Crystallography (DGK) in 2022 is intended to honor outstanding academic achievements (e.g., bachelor’s/master’s/diploma theses/graduate examinations or comparable project work) in which methods and aspects of crystallography have been successfully applied. The prize will be awarded for the first time at the Honorary Evening of the 30th Annual Meeting of the DGK in Munich.

The prize is awarded annually to a maximum of three winners and consists of a certificate and the financing of the participation in the annual meeting including the conference dinner and the assumption of travel expenses in accordance with the Federal Travel Expenses Act up to a maximum of 500 euros as well as a three-year membership in the DGK.
