Nominees sought for 2013 Bank of America Award for Teaching Excellence

Wednesday, November 7, 2012

The selection committee for the 2013 Bank of America Award for Teaching Excellence is soliciting nominees.  This award is one of the most important and prestigious 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 Bank of America Award for Teaching Excellence, 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 Bank of America Award Committee will select five finalists from among the nominees.  The award recipient will be selected from the finalists and will be honored along with them at an awards ceremony in September 2013.

For more information or to nominate a teacher, visit the Bank of America Award for Teaching Excellence website. Nominations are due by Friday, Dec. 7.
