Departmental Awards
MSU's Center for Integrative Studies in Social Science is pleased to offer the IDS and GLIS Values Awards, which recognizes students who exemplify our values in their academic and/or personal lives. The values are:
-
Community: We prioritize cultivating and sustaining meaningful relationships.
-
Equity: We live out our responsibility to our community members by forging accessible pathways to success that address past and present inequalities.
-
Inclusion: Our community is welcoming and respectful and seeks to amplify the voices of those who have historically gone unheard.
-
Curiosity: We embrace wonder and we advocate exploration.
-
Collaboration: We build bridges that facilitate achievement of common goals and expand our community.
Self nominations are welcome. Nominations will close Friday, February 27, 2026. The winners will be informed by March 20, 2026 and will be honored at our spring awards ceremony in April.
