Faculty, Staff and Alumni Honors

 

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is the state’s flagship institution: a classic land grant university, dedicated to its traditional excellence in education, research, and public engagement, and driven to innovate in each of these missions.

Faculty and staff members also are well connected internationally, collaborating with other top scholars from around the world and across disciplines.  They are world-renowned scholars who have been recognized with such top awards as Nobel Prizes, Pulitzer Prizes, Guggenheim Fellowships, Tony Awards, MacArthur “genius” awards, and memberships in the nation’s elite academies of arts and sciences. 

Urbana campus alumni are similarly recognized.  Eleven University alumni have won Nobel Prizes and over 150 are Guggenheim Fellows.

As a way to honor our faculty, staff and alumni, national and international award categories are listed below.  Each links to a htm and an excel file highlighting Illinois faculty and alumni. These files are continually updated as new awards and their members are identified. The latest update date is posted next to the award and within the file.

We appreciate the assistance of faculty and alumni to bring any missing data to our attention. Please contact Chris Harris at (217) 333-5010 or csharris@uiuc.edu for updates.
