UWM Research Foundation
Senior Faculty Awards
These awards are designed to recognize researchers who have a long history of significant contributions to their field of research. Unlike the Graduate School/UWM Foundation Research Awards which recognize assistant and associate professors, all research faculty members, including UWM Distinguished Professors, are eligible for these awards.
The Committee of UWM Distinguished Professors reviews the nominations and makes recommendations to the Vice Chancellor for REsearch & Exonomic Development, and Dean of the Graduate School for final selections. The individuals selected as recipients receive $1,500 cash awards and are honored at the UWM Awards Ceremony.
In addition to providing a means of honoring outstanding researchers, these awards recognize our collective commitment to academic research and to the importance of UWM's research mission.
