Nominations welcome for Craigdarroch Research Awards

A new year means another chance for faculty members to put a spotlight on research or creative excellence in their unit with one of five Craigdarroch Research Awards to be given this spring. From now until Jan. 28 you can nominate an extraordinary researcher or artist who takes centre stage in original, productive and groundbreaking knowledge creation at the University of Victoria. Established in 2003, the Craigdarroch Research Awards are celebrating their tenth anniversary of recognizing outstanding research-focused contributions in every unit at UVic. Nominations are welcome from across campus in five categories, including career achievement, research excellence, artistic expression, innovation and entrepreneurship and knowledge mobilization.
