Parker College of Business Faculty and Staff Awards
Annually, the Parker College of Business gives nineteen awards to outstanding faculty and staff. All of these awards were established and are supported through the generous contributions of our alumni, supporters and friends.
Awards are given for outstanding teaching, research and service, based upon the nominations and recommendations of other faculty and staff. The award selections are made either by a committee of faculty and staff or by the department chairs. The awards are announced and the winners recognized at the annual Parker College of Business Awards Gala and the final Faculty/Staff Meeting every Spring semester.
