Eureka Prize

The Australian Museum Eureka Prizes are annual Australian science prizes awarded in the fields of scientific research & innovation, science leadership, science communication & journalism and school science.

The finalists are announced each July and winners are announced at a Gala Dinner in August. The awards are presented by the Australian Museum in cooperation with the Australian and New South Wales governments and a range of organisations, companies and individuals.

The awards are decided upon by a panel of judges. The number and names of the awards have changed since they began in 1990. In 2015, 17 prizes were awarded in 4 categories.
