The Renaissance School of Medicine is excited to announce the open call for nominations for the 2023 Faculty Awards
It is time again to recognize the excellent work being done by our faculty in teaching, clinical service, research, and mentoring — all critical aspects of the mission of the School of Medicine.
Nominations will be accepted through midnight, July 31, 2023. Awards will be presented at our Annual Faculty Awards Ceremony in the Fall of 2023. Award recipients will have their name added to the award recipient plaque in RSOM and receive a $1000 (except where noted).
Eligibility
All School of Medicine faculty members are eligible for consideration. Faculty members at our close affiliates are eligible for consideration. Please note, past recipients are not eligible for consideration in the same category in which they previously received an award.
Applicant nominations are considered for three consecutive years. Candidates nominated in 2021 do not need to reapply for the same award in 2023. However, a new application can be submitted if there is additional evidence to support the candidate's nomination.
