Brian P. Copenhaver Award for Innovation in Teaching with Technology

In 2002, the Faculty Committee on Educational Technology created this Innovation Award to recognize and honor faculty making innovative use of technology to improve undergraduate instruction. By bringing the nominees together at campus events and on line, the Committee also hopes to foster an exchange of ideas and create a community of instructors with interest in exploring creative uses of technology in teaching.

In recognition of Brian Copenhaver's leadership of the College and to ensure his legacy at UCLA, Richard and Barbara Bergman have endowed the Brian P. Copenhaver Award for Innovation in Teaching with Technology. The FCET and UCLA are grateful to the Bergmans for their generous and thoughtful support.
