The Academy is a professional society organized to demonstrate an ongoing institutional recognition of and commitment to teaching and learning excellence and the scholarship of teaching. The former President of UT Health Science Center, Francisco G. Cigarroa, MD, presided over the inaugural reception in October 2008.
“The Academy will recognize and reward faculty members at the UT Health Science Center at San Antonio,” said John Littlefield, PhD, Director of the Academic Center for Excellence in Teaching. “Faculty who exhibit teaching excellence, scholarly teaching practices, and/or extraordinary scholarship in teaching and education will be invited to join the Academy.”

 

In a coordinated effort with the Academic Center for Excellence in Teaching, (ACET), the Academy has three goals: 

1. to facilitate faculty members’ ongoing professional development and practice in the scholarship of teaching;
2. to encourage career interest, excellence, commitment, and scholarship in teaching through professional development activities for students, residents, and fellows; and
3. to contribute to the scholarship of teaching by conducting research in health professions education. Academy members will encourage faculty who are dedicated to scholarly teaching and to educational scholarship and will serve as professional role models and mentors for faculty, residents, fellows, and students.
