Husson Service and Research Awards

Husson Service Award

• Service to the University’s community
• Service to the University

There will be two Husson Service Awards. The committee will select the first recipient to be that individual who best demonstrates outstanding service to the University’s community – i.e. in the external environment in which we live and work. The second Award will be presented to the individual who best demonstrates outstanding service to the University – i.e. the internal environment in which we live and work.

Husson Research Award

All full-time faculty and staff are eligible for nomination or application. Nominations are welcome from students, peers, or self-nomination.

The Husson Research Award will be presented to the faculty member who demonstrates and achieves scholarly work as recognized/reviewed by his or her peers.

Criteria

Process: The nomination and application process is envisioned to be easy and not onerous on the individual. Completed applications/nominations are to emphasize the basis for the recommendation and include:

• 1. A description of nominees service or research activities to be considered
• 2. Materials that would support the engagement of the nominee in the community
• 3. Examples of scholarly materials to be considered

The Dean’s Council will review nominations/applications for the research award and make a recommendation for the selection of the recipient. The President’s Cabinet will review the service nomination/applications for recommended recipients.  This process is intended to be inclusive and is not intended to create an administrative burden on the nominator or applicant.
