The Faculty Scholarly Excellence Award is a retrospective faculty achievement award administered by John Jay College of Criminal Justice’s Office for Advancement of Research (OAR). It recognizes exceptional scholarship demonstrated during the previous three calendar years, rather than supporting a proposed research project. The award is part of OAR’s annual competitive award programs and its broader work to promote faculty scholarship.
Up to five faculty members receive recognition through two courses of reassigned teaching time during the following academic year. The program pairs acknowledgment of demonstrated scholarly excellence with a change in recipients’ teaching responsibilities. It is listed among the college’s internal funding opportunities for tenure-track and tenured faculty.
