Service Recognition Program
The University recognizes and expresses appreciation for the long-term service of both full-time and part-time employees (regularly scheduled to work 20 or more hours each week). Eligibility for awards is determined by an employee's UTD years of service according to the University's fiscal year, Sept 1 through August 31. The program currently recognizes employee service at five-year intervals, beginning with five years.
The President’s Office sponsors the service recognition award ceremony. The ceremony is typically held during the fall semester of the year following August 31st of the recognition year.
