About the Awards
Submission Requirements
Each year, the College of Human Medicine honors faculty, academic staff, and support staff who exemplify excellence in teaching, research, clinical service, community engagement, mentorship, and leadership. These awards reflect our commitment to fostering a culture of recognition, collaboration, and academic distinction.
The annual Dean’s Recognition Reception serves as a signature event to celebrate the outstanding contributions of individuals across all CHM campuses and departments. Nominations are submitted by colleagues, learners, and supervisors who wish to acknowledge the positive and lasting impact these individuals have made within the college and broader community.
Why Recognition Matters
These awards are more than accolades—they are a reflection of the college’s values. Recognizing faculty and staff:
- Promotes a supportive and inclusive environment
- Encourages excellence in academic and professional work
- Builds morale and strengthens our sense of shared purpose
Whether nominating a colleague or exploring past recipients, we invite you to participate in this annual tradition.
Recognition
All awardees will be identified in late spring and honored at the Dean’s Recognition Reception in the fall.
