Increasing faculty awards and recognition
Addresses objectives: R1B Attract and retain tomorrows research leaders
Faculty awards and recognition are strategically important to build Waterloo’s research profile and increase research capacity. In November 2021 the Waterloo Awards Committee (WAC) contracted a consultant to identify how to better promote and facilitate the submission of high-quality nominations of Waterloo scholars across all disciplines for prestigious awards and honours. An important element of this contract is how to advance Waterloo’s ability to promote and facilitate nominations of Waterloo’s scholars with an equity, diversity, and inclusivity lens.

Moving forward: The WAC report will be finalized in fall 2022. Waterloo will review the recommendations and develop an implementation plan to meet the needs, expectations, and requirements of an increasingly diverse community of scholars at Waterloo.
