University Teaching Award Information

In some cases, applicants may be considered for related university level awards in addition to those at the faculty level. In such cases, separate applications are often required. Due to the limited number of nominees for each award, applications must be vetted through the Faculty of Education Teaching Awards Committee. The links below provide University of Alberta specific eligibility requirements, adjudication criteria and instructions for these teaching awards. 

• Award for Excellence in Graduate Teaching 

• Provost's Award for Early Achievement of Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching 

• Rutherford Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching 

• William Hardy Alexander Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching 

The University of Alberta recognizes outstanding teaching achievements by conferring awards on a regular basis in accord with university policies and procedures. Further information on such awards for teaching excellence can be found in the Awards for Teaching Excellence Policy.
