Nominations for Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ University’s teaching awards are now open and will be accepted through Wednesday, Oct. 15.

University recognition for teaching excellence is competitive and open to full-time faculty who are tenure-track but non-tenured assistant or associate professors (Rising Star Teacher Award), tenured (Presidential Teacher Award) and instructional (Provost Award for Excellence in Teaching).

In addition, students are invited to nominate full-time instructors for the prestigious University Professor Award, which was founded in 1970.

This year, two new awards approved by Faculty Senate have been added to recognize outstanding faculty service. The Presidential Service Award and the Provost Award for Excellence in Service are now presented annually to an Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ University faculty member to celebrate excellence in service as acknowledged by peers, students and/or community members.
