Awards

Faculty Excellence Award

College of Engineering & Technology

These awards are determined by three CET faculty committees and one CET staff committee. The full-time faculty nominee must have been employed at UVU for at least three (3) consecutive academic years. For the Faculty Teaching Excellence Award, the nominee must be teaching at least 50% load for CET departments.
The Faculty Teaching Excellence award is based primarily upon student evaluations. Additional considerations are given for improved and new teaching pedagogy, development of new courses and may include conversion of existing courses to hybrid or online delivery, etc. This is beyond the regular expectation of keeping course material up-to-date.
