RECIPIENTS November 2020

DEAN’S MESSAGE

I would like to congratulate all of the Ted Rogers School of Management award winners. These students are the engine of our school, constantly generating the energy and innovation that push the Ted Rogers School forward and contribute to our reputation as the preeminent school for entrepreneurially-minded business leaders.

Every day, I learn about another new initiative or achievement by our students, and it is inspiring. From the excellent work they do in class and through experiential learning opportunities, to the impacts they have on our community and industry, they consistently exceed expectations.

We are proud to support our students through awards and scholarships, and to celebrate their successes. Our support also extends to the various services available to students throughout the year. I would encourage them to connect with our Student Advising Centre, Academic Success Centre and our Business Career Hub for support, and join some of our amazing student groups to become further involved with the Ted Rogers School community.

To our award winners: you should all be exceptionally proud of what you have accomplished so far. As our future global business leaders, I encourage you to push expectations and defy the conventional as you continue your journey with TRSM and beyond.

Dr. Daphne Taras Dean, Ted Rogers School of Management
