Have you or a colleague recently received an external honour, prize, award or prestigious fellowship in recognition of your research or innovation, creative professional activity, teaching, or leadership? The Division of the Vice-President, Research & Innovation (VPRI) and your academic division would love to know!
Please report the award by adding it to a profile in DiscoverResearch or filling out this simple form.
This form may also be used to upload lists of awards to add to or correct data in the Faculty Honours and Awards Dashboards. Reported awards will be added to the Dashboards three times per year in April, August, and December. (Note: Administrators may download relevant Honours and Awards data by accessing the version in the ).
Any honours, distinctions, prizes, awards, and fellowships that recognize research achievement, creative professional activity, leadership or service, teaching or education received by faculty members during their appointment at University of Toronto. Awards from the Tri-Agencies (CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC) and Canadian Academies (Canadian Academy of Engineering, Canadian Academy of Health Sciences, and Royal Society of Canada) are tracked directly by VPRI and do not need to be reported.
The following types of recognition are not included in the Honours and Awards dashboards: salary awards and operating grants (e.g. Canada Research Chairs, Early Researcher Awards and Connaught Awards, which appear in other VPRI dashboards); abstract, poster or presentation awards; honorary or administrative positions in academic associations, societies or other universities; unelected fellowships or memberships in academic associations or societies.
What is this information used for? On DiscoverResearch, awards information adds to the completeness of faculty profiles. For VPRI and academic divisions receiving information through this form, knowing about awards allows us to arrange timely recognition and communications (see Honours & Awards Recognition), informs us about successes, opportunities and areas of support for honours and awards, and enables more complete analysis of award trajectories for our faculty.
