The National Central University (NCU) and Delta Electronics Foundation are pleased to establish the NCU-Delta Young Astronomer Lectureship Award to recognize worldwide scholars under the age of 45 who have made outstanding contributions in the field of astronomy or astrophysics. Each lecturer will be invited to visit Taiwan to interact with the local astronomer community and to stimulate young minds by public lectures.

The prize, bestowed by Dr. Bruce Cheng (鄭崇華先生的介紹), Founder and Chairman of the Delta Group, carries a round-trip airfare to Taiwan, an honorarium, and a commemorative plaque. Each lecturer shall spend about two weeks in Taiwan, giving a colloquium at NCU and an outreach talk in a high school designated by the Delta Foundation. Candidates are suggested by the Nomination Committee without regard to sex, race, or nationality, and the finalists are chosen by the Review Committee. Subject to sponsorship funding, it is expected that 1-2 candidates will be awarded annually.
