Research Honours & Distinctions include:

Why apply for research honours & distinctions? Because they…

Encourage future growth since awards beget awards.

Motivate diverse groups to work toward goals that reflect societal needs.

Demonstrate excellence as credible, peer-reviewed benchmarks of success.

Recognize achievements and demonstrate an appreciation for hard work.

How to increase your honours & distinctions? We recommend…

1. Developing a 5-year plan with your Faculty Research Facilitator to assess your opportunities.

2. Working with your Institutional Research Facilitator on each award to identify nominators, gather letters, and draft and edit proposals.

3. Trying again since it usually takes 2 or 3 attempts at one award to be successful.
