The College of Engineering Graduate Student Teaching Fellows Program is a one-year competitive program that prepares graduate students who are currently (or will be) teaching at the postsecondary level. This is a unique opportunity that allows graduate students to engage with evidence-based teaching methods applicable to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
Graduate students will learn to become effective teachers through active participation in a peer-observation program, learning evidence-based course design and development, structured discussions with faculty mentors, and taking part in a course focused on teaching. Upon completion of the program, participants are awarded a non-degree certificate of completion and named a UNL College of Engineering Graduate Student Teaching Fellow. Students will simultaneously earn associate level certification through the CIRTL@Nebraska program (go.unl.edu/cirtl) to be named a CIRTL Associate.
We are currently accepting applications for the program. The deadline for all materials to be submitted is July 1, 2019.
If you have any questions regarding the program, contact Dr. Tareq Daher at (402) 472 4761 or tareq.daher@unl.edu.
