Dr. Stan Floresco receives 2019-2020 Killam Teaching Prize for outstanding teaching



UBC Psychology is pleased to announce that Dr. Stan Floresco, a professor in the department of psychology, has been awarded a Killam Teaching Prize, a top teaching prize at UBC.

This award reflects excellence in distinguished teaching at all levels of instruction. Prize winners are selected by an adjudicating committee chaired by the Faculty of Arts’ Associate Dean and they are approved by the Office of the Provost and Vice-President Academic at UBC.

“Although it can be stressful, teaching is something I find rewarding, and I always try to have fun when I work. It’s the most wonderful feeling to receive such a recognition for having an impact on others while doing something you enjoy.”
Professor, UBC Psychology

As one of six Killam institutions, UBC offers yearly awards from the Killam Endowment Fund to faculty and teaching assistants who demonstrate excellence in teaching.

“This honour is in recognition of your outstanding achievement as a teacher and is no doubt a reflection of your enthusiasm for teaching and commitment to your students.”
UBC’s Office of the Provost and Vice-President Academic
