University teaching award recipients to be named

Winners of the 2019 Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Awards in Memory of Charles B. Murphy and the Exceptional Early Career Award will be announced, starting this week. In addition, winners of the new Excellence in Instruction Award for Continuing Lecturers will be recognized.

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 Excellence in Instruction Award for Continuing Lecturers honors academic staff with the rank of continuing lecturer for outstanding undergraduate teaching on the West Lafayette campus. Recipients of the award will receive a $5,000 award.

The recipients of all three awards will be honored at an invitation-only luncheon on April 8.
