We are pleased to announce that Pamela Rosenbaum, Manager of the Marine Mammal Research Unit (MMRU), Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries (IOF), Faculty of Science, has been awarded a President’s Service Award for Excellence.
The President’s Service Awards for Excellence are presented each year, to up to five outstanding staff members. The PSAE acknowledges staff who have made outstanding contributions to UBC, and who excel in their personal achievements.
With more than 35 years of experience at UBC, Pamela Rosenbaum is a trusted professional advisor, generous in sharing her knowledge and guidance with faculty, administrators, and students. Pamela works closely with graduate students, undergraduate research assistants, technicians, post-doctoral fellows, research associates, and faculty members: providing them with the tools and information to ensure their success. She is often the first point of contact for graduate students starting at UBC, and is often the last point of contact, as students proudly hand her a bound copy of their thesis after graduating. Pamela cares deeply about improving the student experience at UBC and student success after graduation.
Within and outside UBC, Pamela serves as a role model by demonstrating community involvement and active citizenship. She actively encourages and demonstrates community involvement by volunteering alongside students in various activities with the BC Marine Mammal Symposium, Northwest Student Society for Marine Mammalogy, and the Peter Larkin Lecture series.
Pamela will receive her award from President Santa Ono at a special reception on October 2, 2019.
Congratulations, Pamela.
