Awards and Recognition
At Ohio University, faculty and instructors are recognized for excellence in teaching that extends well beyond today's lesson — excellence that impacts Bobcats for years to come.
The Center for Teaching, Learning, and Assessment (CTLA) and the Office of the Vice President and Provost take pride in acknowledging teaching excellence across the University by administering several teaching awards and highlighting additional national, regional and unit-level award winners. The CTLA uses an underlying framework for recognizing and celebrating teaching excellence at OHIO.
