ECS Staff Awards

The College of Engineering and Computer Science recognizes its outstanding staff with four unique awards: ECS Staff Excellence Award for both Student Facing and Non-Student Facing Positions, Outstanding Supporter of DEIA, and the Unsung Hero Award. Recipients are nominated by fellow faculty or staff members and are evaluated by members of the Staff Council.

ECS Staff Excellence Awards

The College of Engineering and Computer Science recognizes two staff members who show endless commitment to the College, students, and current College initiatives. This award recognizes outstanding employees for their performance, achievement, and accomplishments that are above those normally expected. We envision this will be awarded to two staff members: one that is primarily student facing, and one that is primarily non-student facing.

Unsung Hero Award

This award honors a staff member within the College of Engineering and Computer Science who has positively impacted a unit/department or the College with a positive attitude, a willingness to help in whatever capacity necessary, and a commitment to excellence. This award is for those individuals who consistently go the extra mile, but whose contributions tend to be unheralded.

Outstanding Supporter of DEIA

The Office of Inclusive Excellence within the College of Engineering and Computer Science along with the Staff Council recognizes a staff member who shows an endless commitment to all aspects of DEIA efforts. They are always willing to assist with current initiatives and support the College’s and University’s overall goals toward DEIA efforts.
