The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi Announces 2024 Pioneer Award Recipients
The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi—the nation’s oldest and most selective collegiate honor society for all academic disciplines—today announced the recipients of a 2024 Pioneer Award. The $1,000 awards were given to 50 Phi Kappa Phi members nationwide.
The Pioneer Awards are designed to encourage and reward undergraduate members for developing the research, engagement and leadership skills necessary to become a successful scholar.
“It is with great pride that we announce the 2024 recipients of the Pioneer Award. This award, which recognizes 50 outstanding undergraduate members, is a testament to our commitment to fostering research, engagement, and leadership skills in young scholars. The Pioneer Award represents our ongoing dedication to supporting academic excellence and personal growth across all disciplines. It underscores Phi Kappa Phi’s mission to celebrate and advance learning. We congratulate the recipients and look forward to seeing their continued achievements.” said Society Executive Director and CEO, Bradley R. Newcomer.
The selection process for a Pioneer Award is based on the applicant’s academic achievement, honors and awards, relevant research experience, service and leadership experience, on and off campus, a personal statement and letter of recommendation.
The Pioneer Award, established in 2022, is the newest addition to the Society’s robust portfolio of award and grant programs, which currently gives more than $1 million each year to outstanding students and members through graduate and dissertation fellowships, funding for post-baccalaureate development, and grants for local, national and international literacy initiatives. Phi Kappa Phi is proud to offer an award exclusively for undergraduates through this program.
