Nomination packages due April 1 for top institutional honour
Nominations for Memorial’s John Lewis Paton Distinguished University Professorship are due by Wednesday, April 1.
Memorial’s top institutional honour recognizes faculty who embody the university’s mission by demonstrating innovation and excellence in teaching and learning; research, scholarship and creative activity; academic service; and public engagement.
Named for the first president of Memorial University College, the award comprises the lifetime designation Distinguished University Professor and a one-time unrestricted grant ($20,000). More details are available here.
Completed nomination packages must be submitted electronically to the vice-president (research) via researchawards@mun.ca.

Those considering applying should contact their unit’s grants facilitator (or, if the unit has no grants facilitator, the person with signing authority for your unit) to confirm if there are earlier, internal deadlines. These internal deadlines must be factored into the timing of the development and submission of these applications.
