Alumni Awards & College Five Year Anniversary

Join the College of Biological Sciences in October 2010 to celebrate five years as a college!

The College of Biological Sciences will be recognizing outstanding alumni at the five year anniversary celebration in October 2010.

It's not to early to start thinking about colleagues and classmates you might wish to nominate who exemplify excellence in the biological sciences.

Awards will be presented to alumni who have made significant contributions to society and science and whose accomplishments and careers have brought credit to UC Davis by distinction in their careers, in service to their community, or through continued support of UC Davis.

2010 will be the first year that CBS Alumni Awards are given. The general award criteria is as follows:
