Faculty and Staff Awards

Faculty and staff awards will be presented at the annual College of Agricultural Sciences' Faculty and Staff Awards Ceremony. The faculty and staff awards include many cash awards and are made possible only through the generosity of friends of the College. Please give careful consideration to your staff, colleagues (including faculty and staff in the county offices and the research and extension centers), and state leaders who deserve recognition through these awards, as you take steps to initiate nominations where appropriate. This is our opportunity to recognize those who are deserving.

 

Faculty & Staff Awards Luncheon

Formal announcement of the award recipients will be made at the College of Agricultural Sciences' Faculty and Staff Luncheon, where presentation of any commemorative and monetary awards will occur.

The 2024 awards event will be held on May 29th at 12:00 PM in the Memorial Union Ballroom. Please direct questions to the Amber Ahlgren (amber.ahlgren@oregonstate.edu) in the CAS Dean's Office.
