Community Outreach Award

Purpose of the Award 
This award is meant to be different from the campus-wide service award. We know that the community outreach that CASE faculty do is different than in other disciplines, and we want to honor your hard work in spreading your knowledge and/or influence to a wider audience outside the university campus. 

Number of Awards and Award Amount 

There will be a $1,400 award each year. 

Who is Eligible to Apply? 

All CASE affiliated full-time faculty are eligible to apply. Previous applicants who were not selected for the award are encouraged to update their application materials and reapply.     

Current members of the Faculty Leadership Council and faculty who have won this award in the past three years are not eligible. Past winners are listed on the CASE website. 

Timeline for the 2026 Awards 

March 2: Complete application package due to CASE Dean’s office. Submit to CASE@mst.edu
