UTMM recognizes undergraduate students for contributing to life at UTM, championing the Department, and academic excellence. Our students are talented, ambitious, and accomplished. While pursuing your studies, you may take on additional extra-curricular activities that enhance the lives of your fellow students and the wider community. While you're not doing it for personal gain, we want to celebrate your accomplishments formally through this range of available awards.
