The Outstanding Alumni Award was created in 2012 for the 50th anniversary of Science Atlantic. The Award recognizes former students from Atlantic Canada who excelled at a Science Atlantic (or APICS) student conference and then went on to meaningful careers. It is one of four categories for recognition in our Science Atlantic Hall of Fame.
