Teaching Awards

The Center for Teaching Excellence annually administers two awards that are sponsored and conferred by the Office of the Provost. We are also happy to consult with you about your applications to either of these awards or answer any questions you may have about them.

Creative Teaching Award
The purpose of this award is to recognize faculty members who have implemented innovative ways of teaching and have assessed the impact on student learning. The innovation may have been used at other institutions or in other fields, but must be newly adapted to Duquesne in your field.

Graduate Student Award for Excellence in Teaching
The purpose of the award is to promote and reward teaching effectiveness by current graduate students and to provide award nominees with training on how to present evidence of teaching excellence.
