The University of Bonn Teaching Prize
Beyond recognizing excellence in teaching, the ‘University of Bonn Teaching Prize’ is also awarded for exceptional performance in curriculum development, the organization of degree programs, the successful introduction of new forms of teaching and a range of other areas. Nominations for the ‘University of Bonn Teaching Prize’ are made by the faculties or the Bonn Center for Teacher Education (BZL) on the basis of student evaluations of teaching or by these bodies after consultation with students. Each faculty can nominate up to four teachers, depending on its size. Each prize comes with a check for €4,000. The Rectorate selects the prize winners on the basis of the grounds submitted in the nominations. The prizes are awarded on an annual basis in a ceremony incorporated in the Universitätsfest.
