The Albert Einstein Award is a prestigious award in theoretical physics, named after the famous physicist Albert Einstein. It was first awarded in 1951.
This should not be confused with the Albert Einstein World Award of Science given by the World Cultural Council (since 1984), nor with the Hans Albert Einstein Award given by the American Society of Civil Engineers.
