Teaching Fellowship Scheme

(In accordance with Teaching and Learning Committee Resolution 4/05).  

The Teaching and Learning Committee's Teaching

Fellowship Scheme was introduced in 2005 and offers five Fellowships across the University on an annual basis. In 2008 these Fellowships are valued at $22,000 each.

The Scheme is designed to support the University's teaching and learning priorities as identified in the Operational Priorities Plan.  For 2008 the teaching and learning strategic objective is to improve the quality of the student learning experience.

The Scheme is constructed to support innovative, reasonably short-term projects and to encourage projects that impact upon or could be adopted beyond the individual School/Administrative Section. 

This year application to the Scheme was extended to ensure that professional staff who provide various aspects of professional support and/or training which is focused on improving the student learning experience were also eligible to apply to the Scheme.
