Alumni Awards
The IU Richard M. Fairbanks School of Public Health annually seeks nominations for alumni who have distinguished themselves in their careers or service to the school and/or IUPUI. Alumni can be recognized in one of two categories: the Distinguished Alumni Award or the Early Careerist Award. The Distinguished Alumni Award is given to a seasoned alumnus who has made significant impact throughout their career and the Early Careerist Award is presented to an alumnus who earned their degree within the past 15 years.
To recognize the diverse talent trained by IU over the years, an alumnus of the Fairbanks School of Public Health is defined as a graduate of any program now housed within the school. This includes alumni with degrees awarded for programs previously housed within the IU School of Medicine or the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at IUPUI.
