The President’s Council Outstanding Faculty Award recognizes faculty who:
- Engage in significant research, partnership or creative initiatives that make an impact in their field, in the community and/or the world
- Promote student learning, innovation and collaboration in teaching, mentorship or advising
- Demonstrate distinguished leadership within the university, the profession, and the larger community
All full-time faculty who have been employed at FIU for a minimum of three years are eligible to apply. The award recipient receives a cash award of $15,000. The President’s Council welcomes participation from all academic disciplines. We strongly encourage all colleges and schools to submit at least one nomination from their areas.
Online nominations usually open in the late spring and the President’s Council Outstanding Faculty Award Recipient is conferred at the Faculty Convocation Award Ceremony in the Fall semester.
