Outstanding Teaching Assistants
Each semester, the department recognizes five outstanding teaching assistants. Winners are chosen based on recognition by faculty, by considering their supervisor's evaluation, and by whether their students select them for the List of Teachers Ranked as Excellent. Since Spring 2019, these awards have been generously funded by Illinois Computer Science alumnae Scott Fisher (BS Psychology ’72, MS CS ’76). Click here to read more about Fisher's gift.
