Celebration of Excellence and Engagement 2026

From November 12 to 15, 2026 the University of Ottawa is proud to host the Royal Society of Canada (RSC) 2026 Celebration of Excellence and Engagement in Ottawa, Ontario. This annual gathering is an opportunity to celebrate achievements, discuss global challenges, and to welcome distinguished scholars to Ottawa.

Since 1882, the recognition of excellence by the RSC is the highest honour to achieve in the Arts, Social Sciences, Humanities and Sciences. We are delighted to recognize this year’s exceptional cohort of new Fellows and new Members of the RSC College who have significantly impacted their respective disciplines at both national and international levels. The Induction Ceremonies welcoming new Members will be held on Friday, November 13, 2026.

In addition, 19 prestigious awards will be presented to Canadian scientists, scholars, and researchers for their advancement of knowledge and impact in Canada and internationally and to 24 law students who, upon graduation, are most likely to positively influence equity and social justice in Canada will be presented at the RSC Award Ceremony on Friday, November 13th, 2026.

We look forward to seeing you in Ottawa!
