Faculty Teaching Innovation Fellowship
The Faculty Teaching Innovation Fellowship supports meritorious projects in innovative teaching for faculty engaged in pedagogical innovations to enhance student success. This fellowship is competitive, open to tenure-line faculty and carries a one course release per year.
During the spring semester prior to the academic year for which the fellowship is sought, a faculty member submits a detailed application, including a description of the project and how it will enhance student s’ success. Recipients are expected to assess their innovative methods of teaching and disseminate the information to the campus community.

Although faculty in all ranks may apply for this fellowship, priority is generally given to tenure-line faculty.
