About the magazine

The Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI) is the premier international community for professionals, academics, and students working in human-computer interaction (HCI). Founded in 1982 as part of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), SIGCHI has grown into a global network that fosters research, education, and practice in the design, evaluation, and implementation of interactive computing systems. Its core mission is to advance the field of HCI by promoting the exchange of ideas, supporting rigorous scholarship, and recognizing outstanding contributions through its awards and conferences. SIGCHI's influence extends through its flagship conferences, such as the ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, and its support for numerous specialized symposia and workshops. The organization is dedicated to inclusivity and interdisciplinary collaboration, bridging computer science, design, psychology, and the social sciences. Through its awards program, SIGCHI honors individuals who have made significant contributions to the field, from foundational research to practical innovation.

For those considering nominations for SIGCHI Awards, it is crucial to familiarize yourself with the specific criteria for each award, which are detailed on the SIGCHI website. Nominations should clearly articulate the nominee's contributions, their impact on the field, and how they align with the award's focus. Supporting letters from respected colleagues can strengthen a nomination, but avoid hyperbole; concrete evidence of innovation and influence is more persuasive. Ensure all materials are submitted by the stated deadline and adhere to formatting guidelines. If you are unsure about the suitability of a nomination, contact the awards committee chair for guidance before proceeding.
