The President's Engaged Scholarship Awards Program recognizes Texas Tech faculty from all disciplines who demonstrate exemplary and sustained commitment to engagement with community partners. Recognized faculty apply their teaching, research, or creative activity to address a significant community need or larger social issue, trying to find solutions that may improve the quality of life for individuals, families, and communities. They actively collaborate with members of the community (locally, statewide, nationally, or globally), regarding them as equal partners in the process, sharing knowledge and expertise, and working together to generate new knowledge for the mutual benefit of both the community and the university.

The President's Engaged Scholarship Awards consist of two separate awards: 

• President's Excellence in Engaged Scholarship Award
  • Award Categories
• President's Emerging Engaged Scholarship Award

Select the individually listed awards above to learn more about the criteria and eligibility.
