Academic Support Programs Teaching Fellowship

Applications for the 2025-2026 Cohort are open now!

The Academic Support Program’s Teaching Fellowship is a 1-year long fellowship where a cohort of UW faculty collaborate with our peer educators (tutors and academic coaches) to enrich and develop our respective learning spaces. The fellowship creates opportunities for faculty and instructors teaching larger gateway courses to engage in meaningful conversations outside their department with one another and our teams. Ultimately, the goal is to make the learning spaces (both classroom and learning center/coaching) more dynamic, equitable and interesting.

For the 2025-2026 cohort, the teaching fellowship will focus on Math curriculum with an emphasis on the 12X series.
For our inaugural year, we are aiming for a cohort of 4-5 fellows.

ASP Fellowship Goals

Enrich the broader campus learning ecosystem in critical gateway courses by creating reciprocal knowledge sharing between faculty and our student educators

Create meaningful opportunities for learning and support between ASP and the departments we serve
Develop and implement pedagogical strategies that enrich the student experience
Provide faculty members with opportunities to develop professional accomplishments in teaching
