Three of the four Mitchell awards are: a SOE faculty, a PhD student and an external partner
The Mitchell Center has recognized the outstanding contributions of teams, mentors, students, and partners via annual awards. This year’s award nominations were among the strongest ever submitted, which made the review committee’s decisions harder than ever. Congratulations to this year’s award recipients!
