Awards Banquet

The Outstanding Alumnus Award is an annual award given by the psychology department at MSU Denver to recognize one outstanding alumnus who has demonstrated exceptional contribution to the profession of psychology, the local or national community, and our university.   Though many of our former students go on to achieve and contribute in ways that make our department very proud, the award recipient stands out as truly exemplary.  Winners of the Outstanding Alumnus Award are honored at our annual awards ceremony held every spring, and additionally have their name added to a plaque kept in the Psychology Department.

We welcome applications for the Outstanding Alumnus Award.
