Utrecht University has awarded Teacher Awards since 1994, to encourage academic teachers to continuously improve their teaching and to show them appreciation. The Teacher Awards consist of the Teacher Talent Award, for academic teachers who have recently started, and the Outstanding Teacher Award, for those teachers with upwards of five years’ teaching experience. Every year, study associations in Utrecht can nominate a teacher for these prizes and this year, no fewer than 34 have been nominated.
The announcement of the winners will take place during our annual ‘Onderwijsparade’ (Education Day) on Thursday March 10th. Register now for the programme!
