Graduate Students' Association GSA Awards acceptance

GSA Recognition Awards

Each year, the GSA confers awards on graduate students who have excelled in research, teaching, academic achievement, leadership, and service to the University and the wider community. In addition, the GSA recognizes faculty and staff for their outstanding contributions to graduate education and honors alumni and benefactors who support and advocate for graduate students. Award recipients are celebrated annually at the GSA Awards Night in March. Many of these awards are funded through the Graduate Student Support Fund (GSSF), which the GSA has negotiated on behalf of graduate students.
