The Honors and Awards Banquet is held every April to recognize Nutrition and Health Science students who have earned scholarships as chosen by the Honors and Awards Committee.

These students have shown hard work and perseverance in their academic studies. Each honoree and family helps celebrate these achievements with an awards reception.

In addition to presenting scholarships to students, our department recognizes an outstanding External Agency for their support of the department, plus an outstanding alumnus.
