Established in 2024, the College of Education Awards celebrate our extraordinary faculty and staff who have made significant contributions to our college community. The awards were created and are disseminated by the associate dean for faculty and academic staff affairs, the associate dean for research and the dean of the College of Education. Awardees are nominated by their peers (with a letter of support from their supervisor) and are selected by a group of faculty representatives from each of our academic departments.
