Nominated students were all registered in an undergraduate program in 2017-18.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4357 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/discoverycentre\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSCF5866-400x267.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We are pleased to highlight this years&#8217; Award Recipients:<\/p>\n<div class=\"columns\"><div class=\"columns__two\"><ul>\n<li><a href=\"#Eliana\">Eliana Remu<\/a><a href=\"#Eliana\">s<\/a>, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Psychology<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Baraa\">Baraa Arar<\/a>, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Humanities<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Brigitte\">Brigitte Martins<\/a>, Faculty of Engineering and Design, Architecture<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Maximilian\">Maximilian Polzin<\/a>, Faculty of Engineering and Design, Aerospace<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<div class=\"columns__two\"><ul>\n<li><a href=\"#Anna-Marie\">Anna-Marie<\/a> Robertson, Faculty of Public Affairs, Law<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Summer\">Summer Lewis,<\/a> Faculty of public Affairs, Criminology and Criminal Justice<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Elyn\">Elyn Rowe<\/a>, Faculty of Science, Neuroscience<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Olivia\">Olivia Perryman<\/a>, Faculty of Science, Computer Science<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<p><b><a id=\"Eliana\"><\/a>Eliana Remus, Faculty\u00a0of Arts and Social Sciences, Psychology<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Eliana is described as an outstanding student, committed to community engagement that is linked to her undergraduate research.
