Promoting Academic Excellence at UNL

UNL's Programs of Excellence

The 2007-2008 Program of Excellence (PoE) reports were due March 16th, 2009, to Crystal Berner (cberner2@unl.edu). For more information about the Programs of Excellence, please contact Crystal Berner or Greg Gunderson, 402-472-3751.

In 2002, when Programs of Excellence (PoE) funds were first identified, UNL established a process for individual units and programs to identify priority programs in their areas consistent with the priority initiatives identified by the Board of Regents. There were 14 programs with potential for excellence that were funded. In succeeding years, departments and units were invited to submit competitive proposals in these identified areas. In addition, a few seed grants were awarded to help faculty further develop additional areas that have great potential for achieving excellence.
