Today, April 7, is the day for UCF’s biggest event of the year in honor of faculty excellence.
Join your colleagues and me virtually from 3 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. for this year’s Founders’ Day Honors Convocation as we celebrate faculty excellence in service to our students and the university. This virtual event will premiere on YouTube at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STriR7gyiqw
The annual convocation recognizes faculty members for outstanding teaching, advising, mentoring, research, professional service, librarianship, and instruction. This includes recognition of UCF Reach for the Stars Award recipients for their highly successful early-career research and creative activity, and Pegasus Professor Award recipients for receiving UCF’s highest honor of excellence.
Faculty who have completed 20, 30, and 40 years of service will be recognized for their dedication. Also, faculty members who have served on Faculty Senate for at least 10 years will be honored as well as those awarded the distinction of emeritus or emerita.
In addition, we will celebrate and recognize a selection of undergraduate students who have demonstrated exceptional ability in their area of study along with remarkable graduate students who have written outstanding theses and dissertations.
