WSU faculty members who make significant contributions to the Honors College and its students can be nominated or apply through Thursday, Feb. 1, 2018 to be a member of the third cohort of Honors Faculty Fellows.
“Exceptional faculty across the university support our mission and have an important impact on Honors College students. Through the Faculty Fellow courtesy title, we are pleased to recognize them publicly,” said Honors College Associate Dean David Shier.
Shier is the contact person for any questions. Information about eligibility and the application process is on the college website at https://honors.wsu.edu/honors-faculty-fellows/. Final selections of fellows will be made by Dean M. Grant Norton, with the new fellowships beginning May 16, 2018.
Terms and eligibility
Tenured and tenure-track faculty, clinical track faculty, and instructors with current WSU appointments are eligible. Interested persons may apply, and nominations are welcome from deans, directors, and chairs. All nominees will be encouraged to submit applications until the Feb. 1 deadline, said Shier.
Honors Faculty Fellow appointments are for three years, but may be renewed by the dean. They can apply for special funding, thanks to generous support from the Jonas family, to support activities related to their roles as fellows, such as developing a new course or program, or attending conferences related to research or teaching.
