Award Details

The RSC administers over 20 prestigious awards in recognition of outstanding achievement.

The Miroslaw Romanowski Medal is awarded for scientific work relating to environmental problems.

Awarded: Annually

The Miroslaw Romanowski Medal was established in 1994, at the generous bequest of the estate of internationally renowned metrologist Miroslaw Romanowski.

The medal is awarded for significant contributions to the resolution of scientific aspects of environmental problems or for important improvements to the quality of an ecosystem in all aspects - terrestrial, atmospheric and aqueous - brought about by scientific means. The bronze medal and a cash amount of $3,000 are awarded every year if there is a suitable candidate. An annual lecture series for the award recipient is also associated to the medal.

Note that after the March 2025 competition closes, RSC will be moving the deadline for its Medals and Awards to December to align with the membership nomination deadline.
