Fourth Annual Carleton Faculty Graduate Mentoring Award

Call for nominations: NOW OPEN

The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs and the Office of the Vice-President (Research and International) would like to announce the launch of the fourth annual Faculty Graduate Mentoring Award. This award is intended to recognize faculty who render exceptional service to graduate students as supervisors and research mentors. The effect of such faculty on the careers of students is frequently transformational.

In order to be considered for an award, faculty must be nominated. Nominators can be current and/or former graduate students, faculty members, and/or staff. Nominations from former and/or current graduate students are particularly welcomed. Nominations should include a statement of no more than 500 words, attesting to the nominee’s exceptional contribution to graduate student supervision and research mentorship. Each individual must submit his/her own nomination. Unsuccessful nominees from previous years may be nominated again.

Nominations must be sent as an electronic attachment in Microsoft Word or “.pdf” format by October 15, 2013 to FGPA.EA@cunet.carleton.ca. Awards will be announced early in the New Year.
