Eighteen University of Notre Dame faculty members have received Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C., Awards for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching and three faculty have been honored with Dockweiler Awards for Excellence in Undergraduate Advising.

Contect, technology for a new, instantaneous, accurate concussion assessment tool, emerged as the winner of the $25,000 grand prize.

Notre Dame will participate beginning this fall in Semester Online, the first education consortium to offer online, for-credit courses from top colleges and universities.

The agreement will establish an exchange program in which faculty, doctoral students and others from Notre Dame will visit, work, study and collaborate with PUC colleagues over the next three years.

The Notre Dame MBA, Executive MBA, Master of Nonprofit Administration and Master of Science in Accountancy programs will bestow degrees at the event, which will take place May 18 in Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center.
