HFA Awards & Fellowships
This new initiative is designed to recognize and reward outstanding faculty contributions in research, teaching, and creative activity in HFA. The new fellowships are as follows:
- HFA Dean’s Outstanding Early Career Fellow
- HFA Dean’s Outstanding Midcareer Fellow
- HFA Dean’s Outstanding Fellow
- HFA Dean’s Outstanding Teaching Fellow
Each fellowship comes with $8,000 per year in research/professional development support for the fellowship's duration. After three years, financial support will end, but winners of this honor will retain the title of HFA Dean’s Fellow until an award like Provost Professor or Distinguished Professor supersedes it.

Three awards of $1,000 are made annually to recognize junior, mid-career, and senior HFA faculty for their outstanding contributions in scholarship, performance, or creative activity. Recipients are recognized at the end-of-year ceremony.
HFA Global Engagement Award
This recognition annually awards $1,000 to a faculty member who has expanded their work beyond the habitual reach of the University and established global partnerships through research, community engagement, or teaching. The recipient is recognized at an end-of-year ceremony.
