In an effort to recognize current, or former, federal partners who work diligently to foster and maintain government-university relationships, NCURA annually recognizes a federal employee who has made a significant contribution to research administration – either through a single project, activity, or innovation, or a lifetime of service – with the esteemed Joseph F. Carrabino Award.
A grants officer at the National Science Foundation, Joseph Carrabino passed away in December of 1989, shortly after retiring. Throughout his career, he was a mentor and friend to many university research administrators as he worked to improve the government-university partnership.
Joe’s career and contributions embody the ideal of this award. As a result, it is an honor for NCURA to recognize the contributions of its federal partners, who, like Joe, positively impact research administration and the government-university partnership.
NCURA’s Nominating and Leadership Development Committee (NLDC) invites nominations for this award. Eligible nominees are current, or former, federal employees who have made a significant contribution to research administration, either through a single project, activity, or innovation, or by a lifetime of service.
The recipient of the award will be honored publicly at the upcoming NCURA Annual Meeting and will receive a plaque in recognition of his or her contribution to university research administration.
Submission materials for this award are:
All nominations and supporting materials from the nominees must be sent electronically to awards@ncura.edu on or before March 15, 2024.
