Office of the Provost

Dear Faculty,

The Office of Alumni Relations is pleased to recognize outstanding faculty at the University of Connecticut through the Alumni Relations Faculty Excellence Awards. Each year, faculty are recognized for their excellence in both teaching and research. The award not only carries with it professional recognition but also includes a $500 contribution to their faculty IDC account. Individuals who are nominated for this award must have a distinguished record of sustained teaching excellence and must have worked at UConn for at least 10 years. I am writing to ask for nominations for this year’s Alumni Relations Faculty Excellence Awards in the following categories:

• Faculty Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching
• Faculty Excellence in Graduate Teaching
• Faculty Excellence in Research and Creativity (Sciences)
• Faculty Excellence in Research and Creativity (Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences)

The Faculty Excellence Awards Committee will convene this spring to select this year’s awardees. Awards will be presented in the fall of 2021. Please send your nominations materials in a single PDF by 5 p.m. Friday, March 5, 2021 to Amanda Pitts at amanda.pitts@uconn.edu. Click here for more information on required nomination materials.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,
Scott M. Roberts
