2026-2027 Call for Educational Equity Mini-Fellowships
Open Application Period: Rolling applications will be accepted during the 2026-2027 academic year until all 20 mini fellowships have been awarded.
The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) in partnership with Academic Affairs is inviting Faculty and Graduate Student Instructors to apply for CTL 2026-2027 Educational Equity Mini-Fellowship. This initiative seeks to involve UNM faculty and Graduate Student Instructors in professional development opportunities that focus upon evidence-based strategies for equity in higher education and facilitates an opportunity to implement strategies and receive rapid feedback on that implementation. Our goal is to support UNM faculty and programs in framing equity as central to their success as educators. Successful completion of the Mini-Fellowship includes a stipend of $500.
Upon approval, faculty and GA instructors will be contacted to arrange details and deliverables.
Instructors will be asked to:
- Attend at least two equity-focused workshops offered through CTL and/or different UNM campus units.
- Participate in CTL Mid-Semester Student Feedback or participate in a formative Peer Observation of Teaching session in order to receive feedback on implementation. Scheduling for both of these services should be arranged directly with CTL.
- Provide a final reflection statement and feedback of this equity-focused opportunity for professional development.
If you have questions about the requirements and submission process, please do not hesitate to contact CTL Teaching Support: teachingsupport@ctl.edu
