About The Award:
Junior faculty represent a unique group of educators who symbolize the future of marketing education. Often, the contributions made by these faculty go unnoticed, influencing faculty retention. It is anticipated that this award will acknowledge the accomplishments of junior faculty and promote awareness of the needs of this distinct group of educators. The recipient will receive a $500 award to be used to enhance his or her teaching, research and service efforts.
