In 2008 Koellner was awarded a Kurt Gödel Centenary Research Prize Fellowship. Currently, Koellner serves on the American Philosophical Association's Advisory Committee to the Eastern Division Program Committee in the area of Logic.[2]

According to a review by Pierre Matet on Zentralblatt MATH, his joint paper with Hugh Woodin Incompatible Ω-Complete Theories contains an illuminating discussion of the issues involved, which makes it recommended reading for anyone interested in modern set theory.[3]
