Awards

The award acknowledges outstanding contributions by faculty and staff to the internationalization of the College and the University. Winners include:

UF faculty can kick-start their international research program. A seed grant provides faculty an opportunity to lay the groundwork for conducting international research. Faculty can use these funds to cover expenses to travel to collect field data, to meet with international scholars, to access resources not available at UF, and to support any activity that advances research abroad.

These awards are made annually in recognition of the outstanding contributions of faculty and staff to the internationalization of the University of Florida.

The judges evaluated each submission based on technical merit, composition, and how well the photo conveyed a “Global Culture” message.

The awards recognize undergraduate international students who have distinguished themselves by excelling in their studies while advancing a global citizenship mindset and contributing to the international profile of the UF community.

  • 2026 – Public Relations Senior Silvana Noriega Saravia with the mentorship of Myiah Hutchens,

    Associate Professor and Chair

  • 2024 – Advertising Junior Carolina Gutierrez with the mentorship of Huan Chen, Associate Professor and Chair
  • 2023 – Advertising Junior Qingyu Yang, with the mentorship of Huan Chen, Associate Professor and Chair

Certificates of Outstanding Merit provide colleges with an opportunity to recognize the exceptional contributions of a broader number of international students. Each college may submit the names of up to five students to receive a certificate.
