The purpose of this event is threefold; (1) highlight student scholarly endeavors within our school and celebrate research that is completed or underway, (2) create an opportunity for School of Education students at all levels to think about research and how it improves our respective fields, and (3) recognize and appreciate the work of student peers.

Monmouth University-William Roberts Charitable Foundation Outstanding Teaching Award
Devoted teachers often receive little recognition for their efforts, and students have too few chances to reward them. That’s why each year Monmouth University seniors expecting to graduate have an opportunity to recognize superior teaching by nominating an outstanding secondary school teacher who played an important role in their lives. The Monmouth University-Roberts Charitable Foundation Outstanding Teaching Award is awarded in May. The recipients, up to three each year, are brought to Monmouth and honored at a dinner prior to Commencement to which students and their parents are also be invited. Each honoree receives an award of $1,500. Furthermore, every nominated teacher receives a certificate of recognition.
