The nomination letter must detail the reasons why the entry merits the award. Published works, conference presentations, technological advances, software, or other publicly disseminated scholarship will be considered.

Awards are $200,000; acceptance of the award requires personal delivery of a public address and participation in university and community activities associated with the award ceremonies.
