- The Willem Barentsz Award - this award will be bestowed once per year for the best field work leading to a Master's thesis. Only students fully or partially supervised by the Wildlife Ecology and Conservation Group are eligible, under the condition that they have handed in their thesis (final version).
The value of the Alfred Russel Wallace Award is 150 euro.
