2016 AMA/Irwin/McGraw-Hill Distinguished Marketing Educator Award

Call for Nominations: Deadline 15 October 2015

Nominations for the 2016 American Marketing Association/Irwin/McGraw-Hill Distinguished Marketing Educator Award are now being sought. The award honors living marketing educators for distinguished service and outstanding contributions in marketing education. It will be presented at the AMA’s 2016 Winter Marketing Educators’ Conference. This year marks the 32nd annual presentation of the award.

Six criteria are considered when evaluating nominees for the award:

• General Creativity/Innovativeness
• Administrative Contributions
• Teaching and Mentoring
• Public Service
• Research Contributions
• Service to the Marketing Profession

All Marketing educators who have made sustained contributions to marketing over an extended period of time are eligible. Such contributions should take a variety of forms and should not be limited to a single professional achievement such as research or administration.

Nominations are invited from individuals and marketing departments. The nominations should be submitted in electronic form and should include:

1. A letter (not to exceed four pages) summarizing the nominee’s creative accomplishments, public service, research, teaching, and service contributions to the marketing profession.
2. A current curriculum vita for the nominee.

The Irwin Award Committee will select a winner from the nominations received. This year’s committee is composed of the following five individuals: Russell Winer (chair), Robin Coulter, Barbara Kahn, Tom Kinnear, and Gary Lilien. Electronic copies of submission materials should be sent by 15 October 2015 to the chair of the Irwin Award Committee:
