SPG Award

The SPG Award was established in 1986 by the SPG with the aim of awarding research work at master’s level. The first SPG Award was awarded in the 1985-1986 biennium and the last in the 2007-2008 biennium. This Award was replaced by the Young Geotechnical Awards in Portuguese and English.
