Honorary Degrees

Home -

Honorary Degrees

The conferral of honorary degrees is a long-standing academic tradition that recognizes individuals for their outstanding contributions to a field, to their community, to humanity at large, and/or to Clarkson University.

All members of the Clarkson community are invited to submit confidential nominations of individuals whose achievements merit recognition and whose presence at Commencement would honor Clarkson University. Nominations may be submitted at any time - there is no deadline or specific window. To nominate a candidate, please complete the following form:

Nomination Form

Each nomination must include two nominators:
A nominator, who submits the form, and
A co-nominator.
Both nominators are required to provide a statement of support (150 - 200 words or an uploaded letter). 

Before you begin, please prepare the following:

  • Nominator’s statement of support (typed or letter upload)

  • Co-nominator’s statement of support (typed or letter upload)

  • Nominee’s CV or resume (optional but encouraged)

  • Up to two additional supporting documents (e.g., biographical articles, awards, publications, personal website)

All nominations will remain confidential throughout the review process. For questions, please email honorarydegree@clarkson.edu.

Purpose 

An honorary degree from Clarkson University recognizes individuals who have made outstanding achievements and contributions to an academic discipline or to society. This recognition may reflect a lifetime of sustained efforts or one or more significant accomplishments. Such degrees honor distinguished scholarship and accomplishments in the professions, sciences, arts, humanities, public service, and service to humanity. Recipients should embody the University’s highest ideals and values, enhance the University’s reputation, and exemplify excellence, service, and integrity.

Guidelines

Clarkson University may award up to three honorary degrees at each Commencement, although there is no obligation to grant any in a given year. In some cases, the Board of Trustees may also approve awarding an honorary degree at a significant occasion other than Commencement. Recipients are expected to attend to accept the degree. In rare cases, if circumstances prevent attendance, the Board Chair and University President may authorize awarding the degree in absentia. Honorary degrees will not be awarded to current Clarkson faculty, staff, or trustees, unless the full Board grants an exception in extraordinary circumstances. All nominations must remain confidential until the process is complete and the President authorizes an official announcement.

Selection Process

Each fall, beginning in October, the Chair of the Honorary Degree Committee solicits nominations from the Clarkson community. Nominators are asked to submit the nomination form, accompanied by two letters of support and any relevant documentation, no later than January 15. The Committee reviews these materials, may request additional information if needed, and forwards a list of no more than five candidates to the Faculty Senate by February 15. The Faculty Senate then evaluates the nominees and submits its recommendations to the University President by April 1. The President presents the recommended candidates to the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees prior to the Board’s May meeting. The Executive Committee reviews the nominations and formulates recommendations for the full Board, which discusses and evaluates them at its May meeting. Final approval of honorary degree recipients takes place at the October Board meeting, where a two-thirds majority of trustees present and voting is required. In special circumstances, the Board may also vote to make exceptions to this process with two-thirds approval. Once the Board has confirmed its selections, the President contacts the honorary degree recipients and makes arrangements for the degrees to be conferred at a future Commencement or other significant occasion.

Committee Composition

The Honorary Degree Committee is a Faculty Senate committee consisting of:

  • A senior academic officer (Provost or Dean) designated by the President, serving as Chair;

  • Three faculty representatives (one from each school) appointed by the Faculty Senate;

  • Two student representatives appointed by the Student Senate, at least one from the junior class;

  • The Director of Development (or designee);

  • The Chair of the Board of Trustees (or designated trustee), ex officio;

  • The President of the Alumni Association (or designee), ex officio.

Approved by the Board of Trustees – October 28, 2016
Approved by Clarkson Faculty Senate – November 21, 2016
Approved by Campus Administrative Council – November 28, 2016
