College of Business

Distinguished Alumni Award

The College of Business recognizes alumni who have made a significant impact in their profession, career, or life’s work. These individuals show integrity, leadership, and a respect for diverse ideas and people. They also value the education they received at the University of Wyoming. This recognition program honors the many outstanding alumni who bring pride to the College through their accomplishments.

Each spring, the College honors its distinguished alumni at the Recognition Celebration, alongside student and faculty award recipients. Honorees are nominated using a PDF form and may include up to five letters of support. A selection committee—made up of College leadership, an advisory board chair, and a past recipient—chooses one honoree each year. Recipients must attend the Annual College of Business Recognition Dinner ceremony in the spring to receive the award. Some alumni are not eligible; please review the nomination form for details.
