Self-nominations are encouraged, as are nominations from colleagues, chairs, or deans.

A faculty member may be considered for only one award per cycle. If a faculty member is nominated for multiple awards in the same cycle, we will reach out to the nominee for guidance on which award they would prefer for consideration.

Nominations that are not selected will remain active for two additional award cycles and will automatically be reconsidered. However, updated materials may be submitted to strengthen a continuing nomination.
