2022-2023 Graduate Student Excellence Awards - Call for Nominations

The Graduate School is seeking nominations for the 2022-2023 Graduate Student Excellence Awards. The submission deadline for nomination packets is Friday, November 4th at 5:00 p.m. 

Nomination packets must be submitted electronically by the student’s Graduate Director - and in PDF format only - to Nicole Smith (smithn@binghamton.edu). Hard copies and submissions that exceed one PDF file will not be accepted.

Each graduate program may nominate only two graduate students per category, per year.  A student may be nominated for more than one category, but may receive only one award.

There are three award categories: Research, Teaching, and Service & Outreach. In an effort to simplify and process nomination packets more efficiently, please organize your packet in the same order as shown on the appropriate checklist (please see attached). Please be sure to include the appropriate checklist as the first item in your nomination packet.
