2026 Faculty Awards
We invite you to recognize individuals who have made an impact, impressed you with their innovation, gone above and beyond to lend a hand, or who you simply consider to be superstars. This is an opportunity to give back and acknowledge faculty for their talent, creativity, and dedication.
The 2026 faculty award nomination period closed Monday, September 7, 2026, at 11:59 pm. The Faculty Appreciation Banquet will be held on Thursday, November 12, 2026.
To submit a nomination, visit the Faculty Award Descriptions page to review award details and access the nomination forms. Before applying, we recommend reading our tips on How to Prepare a Strong Faculty Nomination.
We discourage a single nominator from nominating the same person for multiple awards. Instead, we encourage you to tailor your nomination for the specific award, highlighting the unique contributions that make your nominee a strong candidate for that particular award. Additional eligibility rules apply to all awards. Please see the Eligibility and Process page for more information.
