2024 Faculty Excellence Awards

UA Little Rock faculty members are strong teachers, ground-breaking researchers, and dedicated public servants. This year marks the 35th anniversary of the Faculty Excellence Awards initiated by the UA Little Rock Foundation Board of Directors. The Faculty Excellence Awards were established in 1989 to recognize the outstanding performance of UA Little Rock faculty in the categories of teaching, research or creative endeavors, and public service.

We are able to continue this cherished tradition because of the valued contributions of generous sponsors. University-level winners are selected by the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Board of Visitors who review the achievements of college-level winners in the areas of teaching, research and creative endeavors, public service, social justice, and rising faculty.

The 2024 Faculty Excellence Awards Ceremony will be held on April 4th, 2024 at 5:30 PM in the Donaghey College of Sciences, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Schueck, McCarty, Lexicon Inc. Auditorium – EIT Auditorium.

Congratulations to Drs. Robert Lytle, Rebecca Glazier, Stephen Grace, Mark Baillie, and John Kirk as the winners of the 2023 Faculty Excellence Awards. To read more about the winners follow this link.
