Many types of awards and awards opportunities

Unlike scholarships and fellowships as well as grants, which motivate scientists and scholars, writers and journalists to act in an excellent way and in future produce recognizable products in their fields, awards are granted only to acknowledge the significance of ones work after it has been introduced to international or local audience.

Awards are announced primarily by foundations, as well as international organizations and academic institutions. Undergraduate academic awards are popular among student councils, University departments, foundations and NGOs. For example the most popular award in the Universities till now remains the “Best Student Award” granted by the University head to the best undergraduate or graduate students. Graduate awards similarly are announced by research institutions and are a good incentive for the advancement of graduate and postgraduate research. Postgraduate awards are usually granted to authors of groundbreaking research published as an article or monograph in renowned journals and publishing houses.

Apart from science and education awards there are many other awards in Arts, Culture, Medicine and other fields of human activities. Academy Awards, or better known as Oscar, are the most popular among those which honor achievements in cinematography.
