Nominees sought for 2018 Bank of America Award for Teaching Excellence

The selection committee for the 2018 Bank of America Award for Teaching Excellence is soliciting nominees. This award is one of the most important and prestigious awards presented by the University as it honors outstanding teachers on campus and provides an example of UNC Charlotte’s commitment to teaching excellence.

In its call for nominations, the committee is seeking to honor individuals respected as outstanding teachers and mentors. The strongest nominations include specific examples from students and colleagues alike. In order to be eligible for the award, a faculty member must be tenured, must be on the UNC Charlotte faculty for seven years and must be teaching in the year that the award is given. Nominees cannot be a former recipient or have been an award finalist within the past two years.

As in the past, the committee will select five finalists from among the nominees. The award recipient will be selected from the finalists and all will be honored at an awards ceremony in fall 2018.

More information and details on how to submit a nomination are on the web. The deadline is Thursday, Nov. 16.
