We are writing to invite nominations for the 2009 round of Universitas 21 Fellowships for academic staff and Universitas 21 Scholarships for general staff.
The Universitas 21 Fellowships recognise outstanding teaching staff of the University of Melbourne who have demonstrated a capacity to inspire, extend and enthuse their students. Since 1997, some 30 outstanding academic staff have been appointed as Fellows, bringing tangible benefits to themselves, their departments and the universities within Universitas 21.
The Universitas 21 Scholarships for professional staff of the University of Melbourne recognise outstanding performance and provide development opportunities for the recipients. Scholars have been selected since 1999 and have enjoyed an enriching career development opportunity as well as being able to strengthen the University’s administrative performance and links with other Universitas 21 institutions.
Details about these awards, the criteria for selection, and the nomination and selection processes are set out in attachment 1 for Universitas 21 Fellowships and in attachment 2 for Universitas 21 Scholarships. Heads of Departments have a major role in identifying and recommending members of the University staff who might be considered suitable recipients of these awards.
Staff should submit their application to the Dean by Friday 24th April, 2009.
The Universitas 21 Fellowship Selection Committee looks forward to receiving your nominations.
