Allen A. Copping
Excellence in Teaching Awards
LSUHSC School of Medicine - New Orleans
Established in 1997, the Allen A. Copping Excellence in Teaching Awards represent the preeminent recognition given to our faculty for teaching each year. Department heads as well as student and resident leaders coordinate the faculty nominations in both the basic sciences and clinical sciences. A School of Medicine standing committee composed of faculty, administrators, students from all classes, and house officers reviews the nominating letters, curriculum vitas, and in the case of student or house officer nominations, a support letter from the department. The awards are presented during the School of Medicine precommencement exercises.
