Service Awards

NEW! Chancellor’s Recognition of Staff & Faculty Service Program
Effective September 1, 2011
The new Chancellor’s Recognition of Staff & Faculty Service Program has been established to recognize the dedication and service of staff, faculty and other eligible academic personnel (all non-student academic title series that accrue service credit are eligible). The revised program offers more meaningful awards, which recognizes the commitment and contributions made to our students, the mission of the university, and the community. In addition, each service award will now bear the insignia of the University of California, Riverside and will be exclusive to the years of service milestone that has been achieved.
The administration of the program is a collaborative effort, Human Resources will coordinate the program for staff, while Academic Personnel will coordinate the program for faculty and other eligible academics (e.g., ladder rank equivalents, specialists, professional researchers, librarians, etc.). Award ordering, engraving, quality control, packaging and delivery to a department designate will be administered by the UCR Campus Store.
Award descriptions and program details can be found below.
