CNS › Faculty › Honors

Awards are just a small way UT, the College, and I can recognize and express our thanks to the many wonderful staff and faculty who serve in so many selfless ways. They truly excel above and beyond their job descriptions to provide the best educational experiences for our Natural Sciences students.

--Mary Ann Rankin, Dean

An annual Honor's Banquet, hosted by Dean Rankin and her associate/assistant deans, celebrates staff and faculty recipients of departmental staff excellence awards, teaching and advising excellence awards, and professional society and special awards once a year.
