Teaching Fellowships are awarded to undertake discipline-based or inter-disciplinary fellowship activities that promote excellence in learning and teaching.

Teaching Fellows undertake a program of activities with the goal of enhancing disciplinary or inter-disciplinary teaching and learning within their institution and beyond.
Teaching Fellows will normally undertake fellowship activities within their home institutions for one year. The Fellowship will provide for full release from all or most academic activities for three months full-time work on their fellowship program.
