Graduate Council Award for Exceptional, Original Scholarship
One of the main purposes of the Graduate Council’s Research Committee is to enhance the research infrastructure for graduate students and create a culture of research here at TWU that emphasizes excellence among our graduate students. The Graduate Council Award for Exceptional, Original Scholarship recognizes graduate students who have exhibited exceptional, ongoing scholarship. This award will recognize a current graduate student who has evidence of peer-reviewed scholarly activity (e.g. peer-reviewed publications, juried presentations, etc.) and has actively engaged in original scholarly activity at TWU. Awards for excellence will be considered for scholarship as outlined below.
