Honorees
Distinguished UofSC faculty have earned numerous awards across multiple fields of study. These “Highly Prestigious” and “Prestigious” awards, as designated by the National Research Council, are bestowed by peers and colleagues in recognition of academic and scholarly excellence at the highest levels. When UofSC faculty members receive these awards, it honors their outstanding achievements as individuals, makes them eligible to nominate their colleagues for these awards and raises the profile of the UofSC research community, creating a virtuous cycle of excellence and acclaim.
