Great students are the result of hard work and great teachers, and Brock wants to recognize those who stand out.

The deadline for nominations is fast approaching for two annual teaching awards including the Brock University Award for Excellence in Teaching for Early Career Faculty and the Don Ursino Award for Excellence in the Teaching of Large Classes.

The Early Career Faculty award recognizes the contributions to teaching undertaken by a new faculty member who is in the first five years of a tenure-track position.

The Don Ursino award recognizes an outstanding teacher who demonstrates commitment to the improvement of student learning in a large class.

Submissions for both awards are due November 8. Award details and criteria are available online and hard copy. Nomination packages can be submitted in either electronic format to cpi@brocku.ca or hard copy, Attention: Centre for Pedagogical Innovation (CPI), TH 136.
