FPGA Recognizes Outstanding Researchers

The Research Excellence Award is given to an applicant who demonstrates general excellence in research, and particularly evidence of leadership, that has made a significant contribution to their field of research, appropriate to the field and the candidate’s stage of career. 

Jonathan Malloy

Jonathan Malloy is professor of Political Science and the Hon. Dick, Ruth and Judy Bell Chair in Parliamentary Democracy. He is recognized for his exceptional record of published scholarship over the past 3 years, including: three books with Canadian university presses (one sole authored monograph on Canada’s parliament, one co-authored monograph on the revitalization of graduate education, and one co-edited volume on Ontario politics); four peer-reviewed co-authored journal articles; two sole authored book chapters; several op-eds, and numerous papers which he presented at various conferences, symposia and colloquia.  

The committee also noted Jonathan’s record of obtaining external research grants and recognizes clear evidence of research leadership through his position as President of the Canadian Political Science Association and the many contributions he’s made to supporting and encouraging a vibrant research culture at Carleton and in his home department. 

Siobhan Angus 

Siobhan Angus is a professor of Communication and Media Studies who is blazing an impressive record of scholarship as an early career researcher who joined Carleton in July 2022. The committee was highly impressed by both the volume and quality of her publications, which include: one sole authored monograph with Duke University Press; three peer-reviewed journal articles for which she is either the lead author or sole author; one co-edited volume; and several book chapters and non-peer reviewed articles for which she is, again, the sole author.  

Siobhan has already won a major external grant award with many other publications currently forthcoming or under review. The committee also notes that Siobhan’s research has been recognized internationally for its innovation and quality.
