All full-time EMS staff members who have been employed by the college for a minimum of one year and who have enrolled in educational or professional development courses will be considered eligible for this award.
Recipients will be selected by the Dean of the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences or their designee, based on their application and recomendation of the Staff Advisory Committee.
The size of the fund and the number of applications submitted will determine the amount and value of the awards.
The award is for one academic year. Further accomplishments by a recipient may enable that recipient to be again considered for this award.
