Center for Academic Excellence

Who we are
The Center for Academic Excellence (CAE) endeavors to improve student learning by fostering faculty inquiry into the learning process.

The notion of academic excellence includes excellence in pedagogy, excellence in scholarship and excellence in faculty-student relations in the classroom, laboratory or anywhere learning occurs.

The CAE provides a central place on campus dedicated to support the development and promulgation of the best in new pedagogical methods, and the expansion of student-faculty research opportunities. There are many innovative projects already underway. By creating a forum that unites and organizes these efforts we can build interdisciplinary learning communities whereby faculty and students benefit from the sharing of both knowledge and resources.
