Congratulations to the three recipients of Nipissing University’s Research Achievement Award 2015-16: Dr. Lanyan Chen, associate professor Social Welfare and Social Development; Dr. Pavlina Radia, associate professor, English; and Dr. Dan Walters, associate professor, Geography.

The Research Achievement Awards are intended to recognize meritorious research achievement and to enhance the research productivity and external reputation of full-time faculty members at Nipissing University. Recipients are selected by a committee consisting of two distinguished faculty researchers, one Nipissing University Faculty Association representative, and the provost and associate vice-president, academic and research.

The award consists of a $5,000 research grant, available to the recipient for up to five years, as long as the individual remains a full-time employee of Nipissing.

NU News will be following up on this story with research profiles of each recipient in future issues, so please stay tuned.
