Provost office accepting nominations for awards The Office of the Provost is requesting nominations for the following faculty awards: Developing Scholars Award: Recognizes and rewards junior faculty members who have made outstanding contributions to the research mission of MUSC. The award is aimed at individuals who have successfully demonstrated the capacity to compete for extramural funding but who are still in their formative stages of their career and demonstrate exceptional promise for the future. This is restricted to an assistant professor rank who has been an MUSC faculty member for at least two, but no more than six, academic years. Distinguished Faculty Service Award: Recognizes and honors faculty members, who over a substantial portion of their careers, have provided exceptional and sustained service and contributions in teaching, research, health care and/or public service to the university and the citizens of South Carolina. Up to three awards may be made each year. Outstanding Clinician Award: Honors full-time faculty of any duration of service, who have made outstanding contributions to patient care at MUSC. Currently, active clinicians that commit a significant proportion of their time caring for patients in ambulatory or inpatient settings are eligible for the award.   Forms may be obtained from the Office of the Provost at 135 Cannon Street, Suite 101, or by calling 792-2340. Nominations are due by May 22.
