Each year, UNC celebrates the central role of teaching and mentoring by recognizing faculty, staff and students. The University Committee on Teaching Awards offers a number of awards based on nominations by members of the University community.
Alumni, students, faculty and staff members are encouraged to submit nominations for several campuswide awards that will honor professors and graduate teaching assistants in a variety of categories.
The committee, co-chaired by Teaching Professor Meredith Petschauer ’96 (MA) in exercise and sport science and Assistant Professor Lisa Woodley in nursing, will accept nominations through Sept. 16 at provost.unc.edu/posts/2019/05/08/university-teaching-awards.
The committee will review the nominees and make recommendations to the chancellor. This year, the committee will recommend recipients for six types of awards:
No individual may receive more than one award each year.
Details about the awards and nominating forms are available at provost.unc.edu/posts/2019/05/08/university-teaching-awards. Questions can be directed to the committee co-chairs (mbusby@email.unc.edu or lwoodley@email.unc.edu) or to Debbie Deese in the provost’s office (debbie_deese@unc.edu).
