Murphy Award, Exceptional Early Career Award recipients to be named this week
March 23, 2015
Winners of the 2015 Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Awards in Memory of Charles B. Murphy and the Exceptional Early Career Award will be announced this week.
The University's highest undergraduate teaching honor, the Murphy Award is accompanied by a $10,000 cash award and induction into Purdue's Teaching Academy, which provides leadership for the improvement of undergraduate, graduate and outreach teaching. Murphy was a history professor at Purdue from 1927 to 1970.
The Exceptional Early Career Award recognizes outstanding undergraduate teaching among Purdue's early career, tenure-track faculty. Recipients of the award will receive a $5,000 award with additional funds for a department business account.
The recipients of both awards will be honored at an invitation-only luncheon on April 3.
