Outstanding Senior
The University of Arizona Foundation’s Outstanding Senior Awards program was established in 1971 to recognize the outstanding performances of the University's best seniors.
Every fall and spring semester, the academic departments within the Eller College nominate one graduating senior from their major for this award.
The Arizona Foundation Outstanding Senior for the Eller College is selected by a committee who interviews the individual department nominees. Final selection is made by weighing the candidates’ academic and extra-curricular achievements.
Meet the Spring 2013 MIS Nominee - Nidhi Arora
"I am extremely honored and grateful to be selected as my class's Outstanding Senior. Truly, many of my successes in and out of MIS were possible only because of the support and guidance from my professors, advisers, friends, and family I received over the years. Looking back, I doubt I could have achieved all of this alone. And, while I am pleased to be recognized for my accomplishments thus far, I hope to continue making all of you proud with my accomplishments and support in the coming years."
Congratulations to the following who have represented the MIS department over the years.
