Distinguished Early Career Faculty Award
In 2018, the OSU Executive Team and Academic Affairs Leadership agreed that a program should be created to recognize the accomplishments of recently tenured faculty. The resulting Distinguished Early Career Faculty Award recognizes faculty members awarded tenure within the past three years and who demonstrate an exceptionally strong potential for continued contributions to the University and to the honoree's profession.
Honorees were chosen by their respective college leadership team and each will receive a plaque and a $2000 stipend.
