The Marles Medal in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Medicine (STEMM) and the Marles Medal in Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS) (collectively ‘The Marles Medal’) have been established in 2020 to complement the Woodward Medal (est. 2001). The Marles Medal recognises excellence in research impact, which may include an effect on, change or benefit to the economy, society, culture, public policy or services, health and wellbeing, the environment or quality of life beyond academia.

Up to two Research Impact Medals are awarded annually to two University of Melbourne employees, or research teams, in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Medicine (STEMM) or Humanities and Social Sciences for the most significant demonstrable contribution their excellent and original research has made to society, the economy and environment, in the preceding ten years.

Candidates must be employees of the University of Melbourne at the time of application. Applications are due Monday 11 July 3pm.

The physical Medals are presented during a graduation ceremony and the cash award of $10,000 each for STEMM and HASS is provided by the office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research).
