Each year, The Graduate School honors graduate students in programs throughout our University for their powerful discoveries that contribute to a better future for people and communities in North Carolina. We're pleased to present 11 Impact Awards and six Horizon Awards for 2020.
The longstanding Impact Award, made possible through the generous support of the Graduate Education Advancement Board, recognizes discoveries with a direct impact on our state in the present time.
The Horizon Award, first presented in 2017, recognizes discoveries with future potential to benefit North Carolina (and beyond).
