The University of Chicago Medical & Biological Sciences Alumni Association (UChicago MBSAA) recognizes alumni annually with four awards—the Distinguished Alumni Award; the Distinguished Alumni Award for Early Achievement; the Alumni Service Award; and the Alumni Service Award for Early Achievement.
The deadline for all Alumni Awards is December 1. All nominations for Alumni Awards will be reviewed in the winter and recipients will be announced in the spring.
Award Guidelines
To be eligible for an Alumni Award, a nominee must meet the following requirements:
- Must have matriculated at the Pritzker School of Medicine or the Division of the Biological Sciences (BSD) and earned credit toward an MD, a PhD, or an SM; or served as clinical house staff of the University of Chicago Medicine; or served as a research associate, postdoctoral researcher, or fellow within the BSD.
- Cannot currently be an active (voting) member of the University of Chicago Board of Trustees, the University of Chicago Medical Center Board of Trustees, or the Alumni Council.
- Cannot be in a position of elected or appointed government office or known to be launching a campaign.
- Must be living; no posthumous nominations will be accepted.
- Cannot have previously received an award in the category for which the nomination is submitted. Previous recipients may be nominated for a different category. Please allow more than five years to pass before nominating a candidate for another category.
- Past recipients of the Distinguished Service Award are not eligible for the Distinguished Alumni Award category, but are still eligible for the Alumni Service Award.
- Alumni Award recipients shall remain eligible to receive additional awards granted by the University of Chicago Alumni Association.
- Faculty members of the BSD who are at or near retirement are eligible for the Gold Key Award, regardless of whether they are a UChicago alumnus.
Distinguished Alumni Award
The Distinguished Alumni Award (formerly Distinguished Service Award) recognizes alumni who have brought honor and distinction to the Division of the Biological Sciences and to the University of Chicago by demonstrating outstanding leadership in—and making significant contributions to—the biological sciences or medicine through research, clinical care, health service administration, public and professional service, or civic duties.
To nominate yourself or a peer, you must complete the online nomination form and submit a supporting nomination letter. The nomination letter should specifically address the following:

- What is the significance of the nominee’s body of work?
- Describe the innovation of the nominee’s work and the impact of the work on the alumnus’ area of focus (e.g. research, clinical care, health service administration, public or professional service, civic duties)?
Distinguished Alumni Award for Early Achievement
The Distinguished Alumni Award for Early Achievement (formerly Distinguished Service Award for Early Achievement) recognizes alumni who meet the criteria of the Distinguished Alumni Award above, but who have graduated from the BSD or Pritzker in the past 15 years.

Alumni Service Award
The Alumni Service Award recognizes alumni conducting outstanding volunteer and/or philanthropic efforts on behalf of the UChicago MBSAA, the UChicago Alumni Association, the University of Chicago Medicine, the Division of the Biological Sciences, and/or the University of Chicago. Through these volunteer activities, the alumnus has helped the UChicago MBSAA to foster engagement with students, faculty, and leaders; created a community of volunteers, ambassadors, advocates, and mentors; and encouraged and/or provided philanthropic support. Volunteer activities may include a variety of programs including serving on boards and committee, working with student and alumni programs, and other efforts made to ensure the welfare of the institution.

- Please note that nominations are not confidential; the MBSAA staff will notify the nominee of their nomination to secure additional materials including a personal statement and a profile/bio.
The UChicago MBSAA solicits nominations for the Alumni Awards from all members of the medical and biological sciences community. The Alumni Awards Committee is comprised of biological sciences and medical alumni from a variety of alumni constituencies. The Committee reviews the nominations received and the nominations held on file to determine the recipients who are deemed most deserving of recognition and whose achievements most closely fit the category for which they have been nominated. Nominations for Alumni Awards may be reconsidered in future years at the discretion of the Awards Committee.
Each year, the UChicago MBSAA may distribute up to six Alumni Awards with the following requirements: at least two of the distributed awards must be Distinguished Alumni Awards; at least one of the distributed awards must be an Alumni Service Award; and at least one of the distributed awards must be given to an alumnus who qualifies for either the Distinguished Alumni Award for Early Achievement or the Alumni Service Award for Early Achievement.
The deadline for all Alumni Awards is December 1. All nominations for Alumni Awards will be reviewed in the winter and recipients will be announced in the spring.
If you have questions about the nomination process, please contact the UChicago MBSAA at alumni@bsd.uchicago.edu or 888.303.0030.
