Nominations open for Graduate Student Awards


Have you had a great graduate supervisor who deserves kudos? Or perhaps your teaching assistant made a difference in your academic success over the past year?

It’s time to recognize those individuals in McMaster’s graduate student community who have made a difference. Nominations are still open for this year’s Graduate Student Awards.

These awards honour graduate student excellence in research communication, teaching assistance, knowledge mobilization and innovation, and leadership in athletics and in community service.

The deadline for the following awards is Sunday, July 20.

  • GSA Award for Contributions by Non-Academic Staff
