Miami University Middletown has recognized outstanding teachers for many years in connection with the Greater Cincinnati Consortium of Colleges and Universities (GCCCU).
In 2005, the CTL began to sponsor the MUM Excellence in Teaching Award, whose recipients also represent the campus at annual celebrations of teaching sponsored by GCCCU, the Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE), and the Ohio Association of Two-Year Colleges (OATYC).
Award winners are nominated by their colleagues and students and then submit dossiers documenting their teaching achievements. The winners are chosen by a panel that includes award recipients from the past two years plus one member of the CTL Leadership Collaborative.
In 2006, the CTL began to make two annual awards, one to full-time faculty and one to part-time faculty.
