Nominations sought for University Professor Award

The Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost currently seeks nominations from undergraduate students for the University Professor Award. The University Professor Award recognizes and honors outstanding teaching and learning at Ohio University.

Any undergraduate student may nominate any full-time tenure-track, instructional or clinical Ohio University faculty member for this award. This includes full-time faculty from any OHIO campus. A committee of undergraduate students may select up to four University Professor award winners each year. The selection process begins with nominations from undergraduate students.

Nominations are due by 5 p.m. on Nov. 14.

The honored faculty members then have the freedom to develop and teach a course of their choosing during the following year as a means of enriching the undergraduate curriculum. Since its founding in 1970, the University Professor program has recognized more than 200 professors for their teaching excellence.
