Student Prizes

Three students affiliated with UCI Community Resilience received school and campus awards in spring 2019.

 Emanuel Preciado, School of Social Ecology, Dean’s Award for Community Engagement. The School of Social Ecology encourages students to contribute their talents and become active members of the community while they are pursuing their academic studies. Each year, the dean recognizes at least four students with financial support from alumni who contributed to the award. Students must demonstrate both scholarly achievement and off-campus community service participation. View Manny’s Community Resilience profile here.
