The Award for Scholarship on Christianity in Business

Funded by the ÃÛÌÒapp Center for Innovation in Business, the Award for Scholarship on Christianity in Business recognizes an academic paper that makes an exceptional contribution to Christian theological inquiry in business, or to the social scientific study of Christian religious phenomena in business. After a thorough review of peer-reviewed academic journals in business, nominations are submitted and judged by a committee formed by the School of Business.

Papers reviewed against four criteria:

  • Rigorous—The paper makes appropriate use of relevant sources and methods, in the course of a rationally compelling development of its theses.
  • Beautiful—The paper is winsome and evocative in its presentation, whether through the lucidity of its prose, or the aptness of its illustrations.
  • Interesting—The paper is novel in its approach and conclusions, not only providing the reader with new insight, but also prompting the reader to consider additional implications beyond those suggested in the manuscript.
  • Useful—The paper is meaningful in its implications, for both scholars and businesspeople that seek to glorify God in their workplace endeavors.

One winner is selected annually and provides a paper presentation open to the public, alumni, students, faculty, staff, area business faculty, etc.

Contact business@calvin.edu for more information about the award.
