In awarding the degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa Royal Roads University seeks to honour individuals whose accomplishments demonstrate a standard of excellence that will inspire the university’s graduates, set an example for the larger community of which RRU is a part, and reflect well upon the university. The RRU board of governors considers candidates with achievements in a broad range of categories, including business, public service, the professions, leisure and the arts, the sciences, voluntary service in the community, or service to the university of long-standing or exceptional merit. In consideration of external candidates the committee gives priority to individuals whose personal qualities and record of achievement relate to RRU’s mission, vision, values or program emphases: sustainable development, entrepreneurship, empowering leadership, conflict management, communications, or learning technologies.
The RRU board of governors welcomes honorary degree nominations from any source: including faculty, learners, staff, alumni, governors or members of the general public.
