Re: Call for Nominations – SGS Graduate Supervision Awards


Nominate an extraordinary graduate supervisor who has made a difference in their students’ development as researchers and provided them with a supportive and stimulating environment.

The annual SGS Graduate Student Supervision Awards honour active faculty members who, over a minimum of a 15-year period (JJ Berry Smith Doctoral Supervision Award) or up to 6 years (SGS Early Career Supervision Award), have demonstrated excellence in supervision at the University of Toronto.

Two JJ Berry Smith Doctoral Supervision Awards and two SGS Early Career Supervision Awards will be offered to successful nominees: one of each award in the Humanities/Social Sciences and in the Physical/Life Sciences. 

Students, faculty members, and staff wishing to submit a nomination should contact their home graduate unit to inquire about the internal selection process and local deadlines.
