We are delighted to extend the deadline to submit a nomination for the 2025 Callaway Doctoral Award to 31 July. In memory of Sir Frank Callaway, the founding President of ASME, this prestigious award is presented on a biennial basis to the best doctoral thesis from an Australian university in the area of music education. The thesis can be for a PhD or for an applied doctorate.
The award is based on the contribution made by a doctoral thesis to furthering theoretical, empirical, historical and/or methodological knowledge in and about music education. In particular, the ability of a doctoral thesis to make conceptual advances in music education theory, policy and practice, to indicate methods for improvement of music education, to assess the significance and viability of innovation in music education, or to contribute to the advances in methodology for research in music education will be assessed as criteria for the award.
