Description

The Letters and Science Meritorious Research/Creativity Award honors faculty annually for significant research or creative achievement. A single significant research or creative achievement or a recent body of work may prompt the nomination, which should be the product of extensive, mature research or creative activity. Awards will be based on the significance and lasting effect of the nominee's work and their achievement's broad impact or recognition. Please note if the research speaks to our land grant mission, enhances DEI efforts or visibility, and/or speaks to University Strategic Goals.
