This prize, given annually to a Geography student in the graduating class, is dedicated to the memory of Peter Schaub, a former Dean's medal award winner and outstanding geography student, who was an active participant in the Geography Student Union (GSU).  

This year's recipient, Isabel Nelson, is graduating with a BSc in Physical Geography, a certificate in Urban Studies and a GIS certificate.

As of summer 2024, Isabel is working in the Palen Lab in 天美mv天美's Department of Biology funded by an NSERC USRA! The research team investigates cumulative effects of renewable energy infrastructure on the environment and biodiversity.

Following two years of working on a cumulative effects program at Environment and Climate Change Canada, she is excited to apply her understanding of policy to this project. After this summer, she plans to take some time away from school to rest and travel. She intends to return to school to pursue a master's degree so she can continue to study the relationships between people and the environment.

Isabel has been featured with the Faculty of Environment! Click here to see how she made a difference in her community throughout her degree and reflects on finding the right major.

Congratulations Isabel!
