May 3, 2021
The Center for Innovations in Teaching and Learning (CITL) at UC Santa Cruz invites senate and non-senate faculty to apply to join our fifth cohort of Faculty Fellows.
CITL Faculty Fellows constitute themselves as a community of peers engaging with higher education research, reflecting on their teaching, exploring campus policy and practice with relation to issues facing students and faculty, and supporting the culture of teaching and learning.
For the first time, in 2021-22 we will be transitioning Faculty Fellows into a program called Leadership for Equity. The program will be co-facilitated by Associate Dean and Professor of Ocean Sciences Christina Ravelo and Professor of Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology Needhi Bhalla, along with CITL Founding Director Jody Greene. In addition to engaging with research and practice related to the transformation of our individual approaches to teaching, mentoring and learning, Leadership for Equity will offer 15 Fellows the opportunity to develop skills as a leader-among-peers in the area of educational and institutional equity.

Fall 2020 Welcome Message
October 16, 2020
Dear Colleagues:
I am excited to welcome 1,486 new frosh and transfer students, 112 new graduate students, and 13 new faculty members to our division this year. They will be integral to our continued effort to support high-impact research and immersive student opportunities. Those experiences, especially in education, will be different this year, as fall instruction remains remote. Having myself taken up the challenge of online instruction to co-teach a course this fall, I’m awed by the creativity and determination of the faculty who pivoted to do this with a one-week notice in spring. When we are able to offer face-to-face instruction in the future, I’m confident that the innovations honed through our own immersion in 2020 will serve faculty and our students well.
In the spirit of the new academic year, I want to share some changes happening in our division:
