The Dean’s Teaching Fellowship Program of the Office of the Dean of Arts and Sciences is designed to foster innovation in the undergraduate curriculum and to give advanced graduate students experience teaching their own undergraduate courses.

The fellow will need to provide documentation of restrictions of receiving outside money. The Dean’s Office expects the department to ensure that the student’s time is spent appropriately.
