2021 University of Calgary Internationalization Achievement Awards call for nominations

UCalgary's students, staff, faculty, community members and programs have enhanced internationalization on campus and beyond. Internationalization includes research, teaching and learning and community engagement done by the UCalgary community on a global scale, as well as offering opportunities to study abroad and accepting international students.

The Internationalization Achievement Awards showcase outstanding contributions that have moved UCalgary forward in its institutional commitment to excellence and leadership in internationalization. The event celebrates the considerable time and effort necessary for successful international contributions led by the UCalgary community, and are a glowing testimony of what’s possible when we collaborate around the world.
