Each year, one award of $500 is given per faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Peter J. Ricketts Outstanding Provost Scholar Award:<\/strong> This award provides one outstanding Provost Scholar Award recipient with an additional $2,000. The amount may be divided between two recipients. The recipient of this award will be selected by the Provost from the Provost Scholar Award recipients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An award presentation event will be hosted in the spring to honour the Provost Scholar Award recipients. Family members and nominators will be invited to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"award-criteria\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Award Criteria<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students are nominated by a faculty member or instructor with the support of their dean. Although the focus is on individuals, nominations will also be considered for groups of undergraduate students. In this case, the award funds will be shared equally among group members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nominated students must be registered in an undergraduate program during the current academic year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Provost Scholar exemplifies student engagement when their academic experience encompasses activities in two or more of the following areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Community engagement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>International learning experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Immersive learning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Undergraduate research<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although there can be a broad interpretation of these four categories due to the variety of activities and engagement happening across the university, the nomination must be linked to students\u2019 studies at Carleton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"nomination-form\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nomination Form<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To nominate a student for the 2025-26 Provost Scholar Award, please complete the form below by <strong>Feb. 23<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"past-recipients\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Past Recipients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congratulations to all <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/teachingawards\/provost-scholar-award-past-winners\/\">past recipients of this award<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you know a student who has engaged a community group through an immersive learning project?
