Tisch & Tufts School of Medicine CSL Faculty Award
The Tisch College and Tufts University School of Medicine Community Service Learning Faculty Award has been established to honor a faculty member who demonstrates outstanding commitment to civic engagement in medical education.
The award will be given to a Tufts School of Medicine faculty member who helps students apply medical knowledge and clinical skills in ways that benefit the community while also developing the students' understanding of health disparities, public health issues, diverse cultures, and other issues important to the host communities. This can be through service and/or advocacy focused on improving health outcomes, whether local or global.

Criteria include:
- Impact on student learning
- Impact on community being served
