The Killam Annual Professorship associates the prestige of a Killam award with the university’s recognition of excellence across diverse domains of academic activity.  Winners of the Killam Annual Professor award will have demonstrated excellence in the following primary areas: research, undergraduate and/or graduate teaching. Service to their academic discipline, and/or service to the community beyond the University, will be considered as supportive of the primary excellence criteria, however service on its own will not be sufficient to merit the award.

Established at the University of Alberta in 1999 by a generous endowment from Petro-Canada, the Petro-Canada Young Innovator Awards Program is designed to recognize and help support the work of outstanding young faculty researchers in the Faculties of Business, Engineering, and Science.
