Do you have a teaching assistant who has made a difference in your studies and deserves kudos for their work? Perhaps your supervisor played a pivotal role in your graduate experience, providing outstanding guidance and support through your academic journey. Has a fellow grad student impacted your McMaster experience through their leadership on—or off—campus?
Nominations are open for the 25th Annual Graduate Student Recognition Awards, a celebration of the achievements, accomplishments and contributions of our graduate community members beyond their personal academic successes.
The Recognition Awards highlight student success in teaching, communicating research, contributions to international student life and leadership on campus and beyond. Supervision and mentorship by faculty, as well as staff contributions to the grad community are also recognized.
The awards are a joint initiative between the McMaster Graduate Students Association (GSA) and the School of Graduate Studies.
Members of the graduate community, as well as undergraduate students, have an opportunity to nominate individuals, although each award may have more specific requirements. Once they are available, please review the nomination packages for more information.
All awards but one, are nomination/application-based awards; the Dean’s Award for Excellence in Communicating Graduate Research is presented to the winner and two runners-up for our GradFlix video competition, held in April 2022.
To mark this year’s awards, we are planning an in-person reception – our first since 2019. Details will be announced soon.
Community, Research
