University Teaching Committee

The University Teaching Committee encourages the efforts of faculty members, departments, and colleges to improve individual teaching skills, devise effective teaching techniques, recognize and reward superior achievements in teaching. The Teaching Committee makes recommendations concerning University Teaching Grants, John R. Park Teaching Fellowships, the Calvin S. & JeNeal N. Hatch Prize in Teaching, the Early Career Teaching Awards, and the Distinguished Teaching Awards.
