History and Mission
The Academy of Distinguished Educators was founded by the Dean of the School of Medicine in 2003 to provide an organizational structure that would recognize, reward and promote excellence in education. This emphasizes the importance of the School of Medicine ’s medical education mission. The 93 founding members were recognized by students and colleagues as exceptional educators. Membership in the Academy has now grown to 140, one third of which are from basic science departments. New members are recognized at a ceremony hosted by the Dean each fall. Members are appointed for life. All faculty of the School of Medicine at the Assistant Professor level or higher are eligible for membership. Applications are solicited once a year in the Spring. Information on gaining membership to the Academy is available on the Membership Page.
The School of Medicine charge to the Academy is:
-
Recognize and reward outstanding teachers.
-
Work to make excellence in teaching a domain of academic advancement.
-
