Vivien Schmidt Awarded EUSA Lifetime Achievement Award
On Friday, May 10, Vivien Schmidt was awarded the European Union Studies Association Lifetime Achievement Award, which is conferred on a scholar once every two years at the Association’s biannual meeting—this year in Denver, Colorado. The EUSA Executive Committee selects
a scholar in the field of EU studies whose lifetime of research and writing have been important, enduring, and widely felt influences on EU scholarship. The association is the largest such association bringing together scholars who work on the European Union.
There was also a keynote panel on Saturday, May 11, assembled to honor her work on the occasion of the lifetime achievement award from EUSA – with Abraham Newman, Professor at Georgetown; Kalypso Nicolaidis, Professor at Oxford University; Tanja Börzel, Professor at the Free University of Berlin; Alberta Sbragia, Professor at Pittsburgh University; George Ross, Professor Emeritus at Brandeis; and Matthias Matthijs, Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins.
