The YSA competition is an innovative attempt by the IACL to promote,
recognize, and encourage scholarship by young scholars. It is held once a year
in conjunction with the IACL annual conference. A maximum of 5 finalists will
be selected, and each will be awarded a travel subsidy (of around $500) and
invited to the IACL conference to give an oral presentation at a special
session organized for this purpose, before a panel of judges chaired by the
IACL President (the review committee of any given year may also recommend that
no finalist be invited). The author of the best paper selected by the panel
will be honored at the banquet of the annual conference and presented with an
award certificate.

- Mantaro J. Hashimoto (MJH) Award for Chinese Historical Phonology:

This award is an annual prize in the amount of US $500, donated by Professor
Anne Yue in memory of the eminent linguist and Sinologist, Professor Mantaro
J. Hashimoto. It is offered as an encouragement to young scholars who wish to
devote themselves to the study of Chinese historical phonology, a field in
which Professor Hashimoto was especially interested and to which he made
numerous important contributions. The prize will be administered as part of
the Young Scholar Award process.

- The Interdisciplinary Research Award (IRA):

This award is an annual prize in the amount of US $500, established in the
honor of Professor Hsin-I Hsieh for his immense contributions to the IACL and
to the field of Chinese Linguistics. The award is offered as a token of
encouragement to young scholars who wish to devote themselves to
interdisciplinary studies in Chinese linguistics. The prize will be
administered as part of the Young Scholar Award (YSA) process.
