This year, we have the privilege of celebrating the Â鶹ÊÓƵ 2025 Killam Laureates, a remarkable cohort of 29 doctoral students, postdoctoral fellows and professors who have made outstanding contributions to the university through their teaching, research and creative endeavours.
Since 1967 the Killam awards have recognized outstanding academic achievement, leadership and extraordinary success in teaching and research at the Â鶹ÊÓƵ. The Â鶹ÊÓƵ is grateful for the invaluable financial assistance the Killam Trusts have given to the university and its Killam Laureates (doctoral students, postdoctoral fellows and professors).
Congratulations to the Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s 2025 Killam Laureates!
