Dr. Richard Miller 2009 U.S. Professor of the Year
For Extraordinary Performance in Undergraduate Education
Dr. Richard Miller, professor of psychology, helps undergraduate students critically examine and contribute to the knowledge base in psychology. For all of his classes, he designs optional lab experiences in which small groups define and investigate a real question that could – and often does – lead to a new discovery. Students plan and conduct all aspects of their studies, from obtaining the participants to coding and analyzing the data and structuring their papers. Many have presented and published their research results. Dr. Miller’s leadership in teaching and research helped strengthen the commitment to teaching throughout the psychology department, which received the University of Nebraska system-wide teaching excellence award.
Administered by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) and sponsored by The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, the awards recognize professors for their influence on teaching and their commitment to undergraduate students.
