Celebration Recognizing UNH Researchers and Scholars
Each year, the Office of Research, Economic Engagement and Outreach celebrates the many UNH faculty, postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and staff who received prestigious external honors, prizes, special recognition or other accolades for their research, scholarship, creative, innovative, or outreach achievements.
In 2025, we are celebrating those who received recognition in 2024.
At the April 2025 celebration, we will announce the winner of the 2025 Innovator of the Year award as well as Graduate Faculty Mentor of the Year and graduate student awards for Research/Scholarship/Creativity, Teaching, and Public Engagement and Outreach.
