Application

Applications are not currently being accepted.

Selection

Teaching fellow applications will be reviewed by a committee that includes: the Director of CETLS, the faculty Director of the Teaching Academy, and former/current Teaching Academy participants. Selection of teaching fellows is based on responses in the application form, scheduling compatibility, and approval by the Associate Dean of Faculty. Participants will also be selected to ensure representation from across disciplines. If there are more applications than can be accommodated, priority may be given to faculty newer to community college teaching. Applicants will be notified in early December.
