Faculty Excellence Awards

Adelphi University’s Faculty Excellence Awards recognize members of the faculty who exemplify outstanding skill in teaching, service, creative work and scholarship.

Descriptions and procedures for each award can be found below. Each award carries a cash prize of $5,000 for full-time faculty, and where eligible, $2,000 for part-time faculty.

Upon issuance of a call for nominations, Provost Chris Storm encourages campus-wide participation in nominating members of the faculty who represent excellence in these areas at its highest levels. Please note, self-nominations are accepted for these awards.

Nominations for this year’s awards are due by February 23, 2024, and must be submitted through this form.
