SW Field Prize in History

The SW Field Prize in History is awarded annually to recognize the best Honors essay submitted by a graduating student in the Honors History program at the University of Alberta. The award was established through endowed funds by Field Atkinson Perraton, Barristers and Solicitors, in honor of one of the firm's founders, the late Mr. SW Field, QC, LLD. Essays are evaluated by a committee headed by the Honors Advisor. Students are automatically considered for this prize based on their completed General Application and their Honors thesis submission.
