It is through the communication of novel research advancements and similar creative activities that institutions of higher learning transform our understanding of the world. The Stephen D. Davis Award for Scholarly Achievement has been established to honor Pepperdine faculty displaying outstanding leadership and achievement in the generation of original scholarly and creative work.

This award will honor the contributions of Pepperdine faculty members who are strengthening our scholarly contributions, and elevating our research reputation. Examples of such accomplishment include research publications of high impact, scholarly books, major musical and artistic products/exhibitions, mentoring of Pepperdine students resulting in scholarly accomplishment, receiving national or international award or recognition for work directly related to their scholarship, and leadership in securing major research grants from external agencies.

The university will honor recipients at the annual 乱伦视频 Faculty Conference.

Award Description and Selection Criteria

The award will recognize selected faculty's outstanding scholarly accomplishments. Up to two awards will be presented annually at the Faculty Conference. One award will be designated for faculty of Seaver College, and a second award for our graduate schools. Each award will come with a medallion to be worn with formal regalia, and a framed award. In addition, this honor will include an $8,000 total prize; $5,000 provided as a stipend payment, and $3,000 provided in support of research and/or conference travel. As this award is designed to honor a culmination of productivity and influence during a faculty member's time at Pepperdine, recipients may not win the prize a second time.
