Once again, these awards will recognize faculty for excellence in teaching, research, scholarship, creativity, mentoring, adjunct teaching, university service and entrepreneurship. They represent the university’s highest faculty honors and include monetary prizes. Before we can present any of the awards, however, we require nominations. Some require nomination by students or alumni only, while others require the dean to support or make the nomination, and still others allow self-nominations. Visit the Faculty Awards website to learn more about the criteria, processes and deadlines.

Please note that those requiring student and alumni nominations are the George Barbour Award for Good Faculty-Student Relations and the Mrs. A.B. “Dolly” Cohen Awards for Excellence in Teaching. These awards have preliminary steps and deadlines prior to November 20 — with the initial nominations from students and alumni due October 9. These initial nominations are then verified for eligibility, and nominees are notified that an electronic dossier must be prepared and submitted by the final nomination deadline of November 20.

Honorees will be announced and recognized in Spring Semester on Thursday April 17th, 2025. The All-University Faculty Awards are co-sponsored by the Office of the President, Faculty Senate and the Provost Office.

Best regards,
Neville G. Pinto

President
