The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars welcomes outstanding and award winning scholars, practitioners, journalists and public intellectuals to take part in its non-partisan dialogue. Each year, the Center hosts around 160 scholars who conduct independent research on national and/or international issues addressing key public policy challenges. Through its scholars, the Center enriches crucial policy debates and provides a platform for scholars in the tradition of President Wilson to bring the worlds of policy and ideas together. In addition to its flagship international Fellowship program, the Center also hosts scholars selected through its individual programs.

Nominators are advised to contact Ellen Steinhauer , Awards and Honours, for information on this competition.

The internal selection of candidates to be nominated by the University for prestigious external awards entails the Awards Advisory Committee (AAC) reviewing several times annually, submissions of preliminary nomination materials for certain external awards. Those faculty members whose files have been selected for the preparation of the University nomination for the above award will be contacted by the Office of the Vice-President (Research) for assistance in developing the final nomination package to be submitted to external bodies.

Preliminary nomination materials must be reviewed first by the Office of the Dean of HSS prior to the deadline set by the AAC (see deadline below). Heads or individual faculty members should submit the AAC nomination template document electronically to HSS’s Secretary to the Associate Deans, Savanna Muscat (smuscat@mun.ca). The template can also be obtained from the Grants Facilitators Heather C. O'Brien or Matthew Milner.
