April 9, 2025 by Alyx Dellamonica

The Department of Chemistry is proud to celebrate the achievements of graduate students receiving awards for the 2023/24 academic year.

"More than 30 of our graduate students received awards recognizing academic achievement, research excellence and contributions to the life of the Department," said Professor Mark Taylor, Associate Chair, Graduate Studies, when announcing the awards.

Taylor recognized the contributions of past students to awards going to people currently pursuing Masters and PhD degrees at the University of Toronto. "The endowed awards are in place thanks to the generosity of donors who had a personal connection to the Department, including numerous undergraduate and graduate student alumni."

"I’m very grateful to them, and to the members of the Graduate Studies Committee who helped to review the applications," he said. "Congratulations to the recipients for this well-deserved recognition!"

The awards will be presented in the Department of Chemistry's annual awards ceremony on May 27th, 2025, offering everyone at the department the opportunity to celebrate and offer their warmest congratulations to all of the recipients.
