Established in 2000, the Franklin Prize for Teaching Excellence is an annual award that celebrates the excellence of our faculty members’ teaching.

On May 14, a number of faculty members were awarded the Franklin Prize in recognition of their outstanding teaching performance. The award plaques were presented by our donor Professor Laurence FRANKLIN.
