Nominations are now open for NC State University’s Awards for Excellence.

The Awards for Excellence is the most prestigious honor bestowed upon non-faculty employees. This award recognizes the outstanding accomplishments and contributions of individual employees, above and beyond an employee’s daily job responsibilities.

The College of Engineering is fortunate to have many outstanding employees who contribute daily to the success of our college. The Awards for Excellence is designed to recognize candidates who have demonstrated excellence in their departments or divisions, the NC State campus community, the State of North Carolina or in the lives of others.

Nominees will first be evaluated at the college-level for the COE Awards for Excellence. Winners of the COE Awards for Excellence will then represent the college at the university-wide Awards for Excellence.

Please note that the previous year’s (2024) winners are not eligible for nomination this year.
