Baylor Fellows

The Baylor Fellows Program recognizes professors across the disciplinary spectrum who exemplify excellence in teaching. Baylor Fellows are committed to pedagogical innovation, inspirational teaching, and the cultivation of these among Baylor faculty. Each year, the Provost establishes the Baylor Fellows' theme and nominations are solicited from three classes of nominators: academic deans (or their designated associate deans), former Baylor Fellows, and the Academy for Teaching & Learning Advisory Council.
