Presidential Teaching Excellence Award
The Presidential Teaching Excellence Award recognizes outstanding faculty members. Teaching excellence, manifested in various ways, brings significant and valuable results for students and their success.
Up to 12 awards may be given each year to tenure-track, non-tenure track, instructor and adjunct faculty members. Recipients receive a $5,000 cash award (less benefits and withholding taxes) or $5,000 in unrestricted support (any equipment purchased as support becomes the property of WSU).

Members of the WSU community (students, faculty, staff and administrators) are eligible to nominate a faculty member for a Presidential Teaching Excellence Award. Nominators should complete and submit the online form below, describing what makes the faculty member an outstanding teacher. Final selection of recipients will be made by WSU’s president.
The call for nominations will open each year on Oct. 1 and close on Nov. 15. Recipients will be notified by Jan. 31 and recognized at the annual Faculty Symposium & Celebration held during the spring semester.
