Celebrating Our 2026–2027 Alpha Epsilon Lambda Honor Society Inductees
The Graduate Center congratulates 56 graduate students named to Alpha Epsilon Lambda, the national honor society recognizing academic excellence and leadership among graduate and professional students. Meet the 2026–2027 inductees and the programs they represent.
Please join the Graduate Center in congratulating the newest members of Alpha Epsilon Lambda (AEL), the national honor society for graduate and professional students.
Membership in AEL recognizes graduate students who have shown outstanding academic achievement, leadership, and commitment to their fields. Students are invited to join based on their academic record in their graduate program, making this a distinction earned by only a select group of our graduate community.
This year’s inductees represent programs across the university, from counseling and education to business, science, and health. We’re proud to celebrate their hard work and the impact they’re making.
