The Catherine Block Memorial Fund Prize was established in memory of Catherine Block, an exceptional Chemistry student here at the University. It is awarded each year to a woman in the junior class in recognition of her outstanding ability and achievement in the field of science. Selection is based on recommendations by the respective departments, which are evaluated by a committee appointed by the Dean of the College. The award consists of a cash prize and certificate.

The Outstanding Graduate Student Award was established at the request of an alumnus who wanted to recognize excellence in research, leadership, and service by a senior graduate student. Winners will show not only a passion for learning and a steadfast diligence in the research lab, but also a dedication to teaching and mentoring, and a commitment to helping his/her community. The award consists of a medal, a cash prize and the winner's name on a plaque to be placed in the Chemistry Department Office.
