Call for applications: 2024-2025 Teaching Recognition Program
The Office of the Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs is pleased to announce the 2024-2025 Teaching Recognition Program (TRP). The TRP is UIC's self-nominated, faculty-administered teaching award program.
The TRP offers a $1,500 increment to the annual base salary of faculty who have documented their teaching excellence over the past three academic years. This year, we will recognize the accomplishments of up to 16 faculty. All tenured, tenure-track, and non-tenure-track faculty with a demonstrated long-term commitment to teaching at UIC are eligible to apply. All applicants must hold a teaching appointment that is greater than 49 percent FTE for the past three academic years. A demonstrated long-term commitment is defined as continuous involvement in teaching at UIC during the Fall and Spring semesters of the previous three academic years (2021-2022, 2022-2023 and 2023-2024). Additional information is available on the TRP webpage.
The deadline for the “Intent to Apply” is Wednesday, September 11, 2024, at 11:59 P.M. The deadline for receipt of applications is Friday, October 11, 2024, at 11:59 P.M. Interested faculty should carefully review the guidelines before submitting applications due to recent changes. Award recipients are expected to sit on the TRP committee in a future year and participate on a panel and/or in a series of workshops to share their teaching practices with the broader UIC community.
We strongly recommend that applicants review the spotlight videos on the TRP webpage that demonstrate innovative and evidence-based teaching practices of past TRP awardees.
We hope that all eligible faculty will take advantage of this opportunity. If you have any questions about this program or require more information, please contact uictrp@uic.edu.
