The Distinguished Teaching Award (DTA) was established to recognize faculty members who demonstrate excellence in teaching at Cal Poly. Only students and alumni, those who have been influenced most by faculty, are eligible to submit nominations. Then, a committee of faculty members evaluate nominees based on written documentation and in-class visitations. Awardees are announced at the end of the academic year and are honored by the university at several important end-of-the-year events.
The nomination period for the Distinguished Teaching Award ends on Monday, November 29th 2021, at 11:59 p.m. Nominations can be submitted by e-mail by logging on here.
