Brandeis University Teaching Awards


Brandeis students, faculty, and alumni are invited to nominate outstanding professors for the Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer ’69 and Joseph Neubauer Prize for Excellence in Teaching and Mentoring, which honors an individual who is involved in the co-curricular and extracurricular life of the campus, and more importantly, has had a significant impact on students’ lives as an exceptional teacher, mentor, advisor and friend.  Lerman-Neubauer Prize recipients in the past competitions have been tenured, full time members of the faculty. The award carries a stipend of $5,000.00 and will be presented at the April 19th faculty meeting.

Nominations are also invited for two other awards: the Michael L. Walzer ’56 Award for Teaching ($1000 stipend for tenure track faculty) and the Louis Dembitz Brandeis Prize for Excellence in Teaching ($1000 stipend for tenured or contract faculty). Past award winners for the three continuing awards are listed on line at:

Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer '69 Prize for Excellence in Teaching and Mentoring
