Many congratulations to Prof. Julia Miyaoka for being selected as a Lam-Larsen Distinguished Teaching Professor! It is an extremely well-deserved honor and maintains the department's streak of having a Distinguished Teaching Professor since the award's inception.

Every two years, we recognize an accomplished group of Lam Family College of Business faculty who are nominated by their peers and selected by a committee for their outstanding contributions in one of three key areas: scholarly research, teaching and community service.
