Regents Professor Award through Texas A&M University
Managed by: Dean of Faculties and Associate Provost Office
Who’s eligible: Full-time faculty members who have held the rank of professor for 5 years at Texas A&M University only. This award does not apply to agency employees. This award is open to all Texas A&M University faculty and is highly competitive. Our university (02) employees may submit nominations for this award, but it is actually better to submit a pre-nomination for Regents Professor Award through Texas A&M AgriLife, as there are not as many faculty to compete with. If you are submitting a nomination through this avenue, please let our office know.
Process: Those wanting to be considered for this award should follow the directions forthcoming by the office of the dean of faculties.
Please note: Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, Texas A&M Forest Service, and Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory may also submit Regents Faculty Fellow Service Award nominations through their respective agencies, and those nominations are handled by the agency director’s office.
