Faculty Awards and Promotion Celebration
During the Faculty Awards and Promotion Celebration, we recognize faculty who have received one our School of Medicine Faculty Awards for Excellence and acknowledge faculty who have been promoted at each of the school’s affiliate locations.

Faculty Awards Review Committee and Nominations
The Faculty Awards Review Committee (FARC) sends an announcement (and deadline) out at the end of each year seeking nominations for School of Medicine faculty awards. Each award has specific requirements and materials that need to be submitted for consideration.
FARC also seeks nominations for university-based awards annually. Announcements regarding criteria, materials, and deadlines will be sent out on the Faculty listserv.
If you would like to be considered to be a member of the Faculty Awards Review Committee, please message Dr. Sullivan.
