Who: Eligibility is listed in attached document. Must be a College of Engineering PhD student from a participating school (see attached). Must be perceived by the student’s advisory committee chair as having high potential to be successful in academia.

Please note: Your School may have its own specific Teaching Fellowship with a similar deadline, and the College Dean’s Teaching Fellowship cannot be awarded in the same year to a graduate student who has received a Teaching Fellowship through their own School.


Please see the attached announcement for additional details. The goal of this College of Engineering Dean’s Teaching Fellowship is to provide additional opportunities for you to teach during your senior graduate school years, which can also be excellent training for graduate students looking to go into faculty careers.

 

The 2023 Dean’s Teaching Fellows will be selected by the College of Engineering's review committee, and applicants will be notified by December 15, 2022. We highly encourage students from all backgrounds to apply for this opportunity.
