The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Earth Sciences (SCEEES) is pleased to open nominations for the second annual Director’s Exceptional Staff Award.
This award recognizes a SCEEES staff member whose contributions meaningfully exceed the expectations of their role and positively impact their department and the School’s mission, operations, and community. Whether through sustained excellence, initiative, professional growth, or contributions that support school-, college, and/or university-level priorities.
Building on the inaugural year, this year’s award process includes updated guidelines and a structured review rubric designed to promote clarity, consistency, and fairness in the evaluation of nominations. Nominations will be reviewed by the SCEEES Awards and Scholarships Committee using a standardized rubric that considers the scope, impact, and sustainability of a nominee’s contributions.
Nominations may be submitted by SCEEES faculty, staff, students, or postdoctoral scholars.
We encourage you to take this opportunity to recognize a colleague whose dedication and efforts make a meaningful difference within SCEEES.
