The Dr. Robert Greenberg Award for Innovation nominations

The Dr. Robert Greenberg Award for Innovation, established by Career Opportunities for Students with Disabilities (COSD), acknowledges the innovations, accomplishments and contributions of Dr. Robert Greenberg, who served as Director of Career Services for over 30 years and 21 of those of years at the University of Tennessee. He was a respected leader and always on the cutting edge of his field. The issue of career employment for college students with disabilities was one of his most noteworthy pursuits. Out of that vision grew the Disability Careers Office at the University of Tennessee, which assists students with disabilities to more effectively use Career Services and be more competitive in the job search. COSD was a further outgrowth of the research conducted by Alan Muir and Dr. Greenberg. Dr. Greenberg’s leadership was the early foundation of COSD, providing the firm footing that propels COSD today.

Candidates for the Dr. Robert Greenberg Award for Innovation may be professionals from Disability Services, Career Services or Employers who have demonstrated innovation in the preparation of college students with disabilities or in the recruitment of these students for employment.
