Faculty Awards

The offie of High Impact Practices and Undergraduate Research is pleased to recognize the hard work and dedication of faculty members across 新澳门六合彩内幕信息campuses and their outstanding contributions in providing our students with transformative learning experiences. High-impact practices are proven to enhance student learning outcomes, promote engagement and retention, and are a key component of a well-rounded education.

The faculty members we recognize are at the forefront of implementing these high impact practices in their classrooms, specifically in the areas of global education and undergraduate research mentorship. Global education has become increasingly important in today's interconnected world, and undergraduate research is a critical component of a comprehensive education that prepares students for their future careers. To recognize these efforts, we present two different types of awards: Global Education Faculty Award and Excellence in Undergraduate Research Mentorship Award.

Global Education Faculty Award

The Global Education Faculty Award recognizes faculty members who have created and delivered Global Citizens courses that allow our students to cultivate their global competencies. These faculty members have demonstrated a commitment to promoting global awareness and have gone above and beyond in providing students with unique and transformative learning experiences that broaden their perspectives and prepare them to be global citizens.

Excellence in Undergraduate Research Mentorship Award

The Excellence in Undergraduate Research Mentorship Award recognizes faculty members who have made significant contributions to the development of undergraduate research skills and the mentorship of undergraduate researchers.
These faculty members have been instrumental in guiding students through the research process, from identifying research questions to presenting their findings at the USF Undergraduate Research conferences and other scholarly events.
