In 2007, CETLA sponsored the “Exemplary Syllabus Awards”. The award recognized the well-designed syllabi created by Howard Faculty.
Below is an archive of the award-winning syllabi from the first 9 years of it’s inception.

Note: No Spring 2007 entries met the benchmark for Natural Sciences (see "Criteria" below).
CETLA recognizes the diversity that exists among the various programs of study at the University; hence, a syllabus award is made in each of the following five categories:
1.Natural Sciences (including Engineering, Architecture, and Computer Science)
2.Social Sciences (including Business, Education, Social Work, and Law)
3.Humanities (including Fine Arts, Divinity, and Communications)
4.Health Sciences (Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Nursing, and Allied Health Sciences)
5.Team Courses (courses designed by multiple faculty members within or across disciplines)
CETLA has adopted the following weighted criteria to complete its internal evaluation of submitted syllabi. Using a scale from 1 (Poor) – 5 (Excellent), judges will evaluate the extent to which the syllabus meets the following criteria:
Syllabi that omit any of the first three components will not advance through the process. In other words, syllabi must first meet criterion #1 for further consideration. Those that meet criterion #1 must then meet criterion #2. Finally, syllabi that meet criterion #2 must meet criterion #3 to remain competitive. The extent to which syllabi meet the criteria will determine the number of points. Thus, the benchmark score for an award will be 40 out of 50 points.
