The Awards & Honors Committee has the responsibility to recommend to Senate candidates for Honorary credentials. Senate gives final approval on Honorary Degrees, Diplomas, and Certificates; whereas the Board gives final approval on Honorary Awards. Honorary Awards are recommended by Senate before going forward to the Board for final approval.
More information can be found at VIU Honorary Credentials.
The Senate support may be asked to become involved in convocation as it relates to honorary credential recipients. More development is required.
