Student/New Professional Award Recipient Reports

The Student/New Professional Award was established by TSA’s Board of Directors (2004-2006) to support and encourage students and new professionals in the textile field to attend the biennial Symposium. The award acknowledges their fine contributions and covers the cost of symposium registration. These awards are presented biennially to selected TSA members who are currently either students in a textile-related field, have graduated from a textile-related field within the past three years, or have been in their first job in the textile field for less than three years. The award is open to presenters and symposium participants through an application process. Each recipient is asked to write a short article reporting on the highlights of the Symposium for TSA publication. The 2024 Symposium recipients’ reports can be found below.
